Similar writing and POV how the character seems to have lost enthusiasm in life and it shows in the way it was written without explicitly stating that.
For another novella, Notes from the Underground by Dostoyevsky is a fairly similar book in it’s construction of the inner world of a character disillusioned with life

Kafka has similar themes. “Bartleby the Scrivener” is a Melville short story I’d take a look at too. There’s also a book called “The Mersault Investigation” written by an Algerian author that’s a retelling of “The Stranger” from the perspective of the murder victim’s brother.
