Notes from Underground

Notes from Underground charts, in diary form, the life of an urban recluse who desperately wants to belong to society but instead inhabits a hell of his own creation.

The volume also includes one of Bogosian’s first plays, Scenes from the New World, in which a narrator participates in three dramas set variously in a seedy city replete with winos, whores and thugs; a trendy restaurant; and the office of a wheeling-dealing talent agent.
