Product Details
- Notes from Underground 2.0 presents a modern reworking of the major themes of social alienation and individual freedom found in Fyodor Dostoevsky's groundbreaking novella. In these pages we hear another iconoclastic first-person voice. The narrator's blog reveals a man by turns outrageous, self-conscious, shrewd, and vindictive. Yet ultimately he becomes a sympathetic and more authentic person as the result of his need for human contact and validation. (Or quite possibly he doesn't.) The plot here only loosely corresponds to that of the original Notes from Underground, although Dostoevsky's two-part structure is duplicated. Part I is an erratic monologue revealing the unnamed character's history and personality; Part II sees him pushed out of his habitual online existence and into a physical confrontation with an extraordinary woman--a woman who shatters his beliefs about himself and his world, using methods that are ingenious, comical, and even transcendent. At the end of the novella there is a short Afterword written by the author addressing the intention and strategies of this contemporary revision of a timeless classic. Steven Q. Fletcher holds a PhD in literature from the University of Virginia. He is the author of the novel The Disciple of Beauty: A Philosopher's Tale of Love, Tragedy, and Transcendence, of which Literary Fiction Book Review said, This novel is so much more than simply a fictional treatise of one man's life; it is a poignant search for meaning in the brief flicker that constitutes a lifetime; it is a whirlwind immersion in all the great works of literature that devote themselves to the fundamental questions; it is a philosophical rumination on love and life and surviving them both; it is a witty and ofttimes humorous exploration of the human condition.

“I ordered the Flowtime Biofeedback Headband from Ubuy. I reside in South Africa. I was very impressed with the ease of purchase, parcel tracking, and speed of service. My package arrived much earlier than anticipated. I am very impressed with the service and would highly recommend it. Hence the 5 stars.”

“I bought Huckberry Flint & Tinder blazer at Ubuy. My request for a return was rejected at first but later I received an apology message willing to resolve the matter without placing any burden on me. I really appreciate their resolution. The blazer was collected yesterday by DHL couriers on behalf of Ubuy. They can only do a refund and not offer a bigger size as i expected, but i am fine with that too. ”
