Night Work
Night Work | Thomas Glavinic
1 post | 4 read
There’s nothing moving outside. No cars. No buses. No people. No birds. Nothing. No one. Anywhere. An ordinary man wakes up on an ordinary day to find that he’s the only living creature in the entire city. The radio and TV are suddenly filled with white noise, there’s no newspaper, the Internet is down and no one’s answering the phone. Jonas is the last living being on the planet. What happened? How? Why? And why is he still here? Thriller and philosophical investigation wrapped up in an intensely compelling, eerie mystery, Night Work is compulsive and exhilarating – but don’t read it when you’re all alone...

Mehso-so

Audioplay about Jonas, who one day wakes up on earth and is completely alone.

It‘s weird, I couldn‘t stand reading 400 pages of this but I feel that the 1-hour-audioplay does too few to really make me experience the situation: The horror, the fear, the loneliness, the traits of madness that kind of automatically evolve …

For me the realisation is too lame but I will be chewing on the fundamental idea for a while.
