vibes Posted April 28, 2006 Report Share Posted April 28, 2006 Some 10 years ago, a former girlfriend asked me to help her interpret a short story she had to read for a class. I'd really like to read the story again, but I can't remember the author or the title. It's an existentialist story, and the only thing I can remember is that the protagonist is in a tunnel or sewer beneath a city, and at one point in the story, watches some church or religious ceremony and feels anger or resentment towards the people and what they're doing. That's about all I can remember. Can anyone help me find this story? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vibes Posted April 28, 2006 Author Report Share Posted April 28, 2006 I'm doing fine. Really. I think I found the story (well, my wife did): "The Man Who Lived Underground," by Richard Wright. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually like Wright's stuff a lot - just never ran across that one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
