Rainer Maria Rilke's The Notebooks of Malte Laurids Brigge (1910), his only novel, is an introspective and poetic account of the inner turmoil of a young Danish nobleman, Malte Laurids Brigge, in Paris.
The book is not a novel, but a collection that mixes short stories, drama, and essay fragments, with a focus on death, power, and existential dilemmas.
The story of Gogol is a story of tragic talent, mysticism and madness, of a manuscript that burned, of a nose and an overcoat, of an auditor and dead souls.
The book contains about twenty stories connected into one whole by the main character (the writer Oskar). It is, therefore, a kind of novel that, through intimate confessions, actually talks about the loneliness of the modern intellectual.
This book includes Chekhov's works from 1880-1885, i.e. humoresques, short stories, and sketches, starting with Letters to a Learned Neighbor, which Chekhov considered the beginning of his literary career.
