Description
'What do I have in common with the Jews? I don't even have anything in common with myself.' Nothing could better express the essence of Franz Kafka. Alienated from his roots, his family, his surroundings, and even his own body, Kafka created a unique literary language in which to hide away. This fantastic introduction reveals the dark humour in Kafka as well as the paranoid side he is better known for.
