Alone by Norman Douglas AUDIOBOOK

Alone by Norman Douglas is a deeply introspective and boldly unconventional exploration of solitude, self-discovery, and the human condition. First published in 1921, this short but powerful novel departs from traditional storytelling and embraces a more meditative, philosophical style—blurring the line between fiction and personal reflection.

The narrative follows an unnamed protagonist as he wanders alone through the streets of London, immersed in his thoughts, memories, and sharp observations of the world around him. His solitude is not a burden but a deliberate choice—a lens through which he critiques society, muses on human behavior, and searches for deeper meaning. Through lyrical prose and flashes of wit, Douglas creates a rich interior monologue that captures both the restlessness and richness of life lived apart from the crowd.

With its elegant language, biting irony, and psychological nuance, Alone stands as a unique literary experiment—a novel that invites the listener to slow down and reflect on identity, freedom, and what it means to truly be oneself in a world full of noise and expectation.
