Modernist studies has had a fair amount to say about boredom, the mundane, the everyday, etc. I'm not well-versed in this literature, but it's out there. One text that does come to mind, though, is Prose of the World: Modernism and the Banality of Empire, by Saikat Majumdar. It's maybe a little more niche than you're looking for, but you might browse its bibliography or read its introduction to get a feel for what's out there. Or you might just find it interesting in itself -- it does cover some heavy hitters like Joyce and Mansfield.
