The Edge of the Alphabet by Janet Frame
An experimental novel written in the form of a private journal. Thora Pattern, the narrator, keeps a secret record of the daily movements and emotions of several (apparently random) people, and finds that their lives are largely consumed by fear, boredom, and isolation. By recording the travails of others, Pattern hopes to alleviate or, at least, understand the emptiness she senses at the edges of her own life. A highly nuanced, introspective work that manages to be evocative, comic, and unsettling all at once.
