Could you reccomend some books with the same feel as Journey to the End of the Night, The Book of Disquiet, Steppenwolf etc. (I hope you get the point) In short a book with a "miserable" protagonist in a miserable world.

There are too many examples to offer really. Pessimistic protagonists / narrators are abundant. Have you read Houellebecq, e.g., Whatever?

Don't know much about Houellebecq, but I'd much more preffer some older (classics if you will) works.
