Items related to Kafka: A Very Short Introduction
Synopsis
Franz Kafka (1883-1924) is among the most intriguing and influential writers of the twentieth century. Kafka's fiction vividly evokes bizarre situations: a man is turned into an insect, a banker is arrested by a mysterious court, a artist starves to death in the name of art. Attending both to Kafka's crisis-ridden life and to the subtleties of his art, Robertson provides an intriguing and accessible look at the life of this fascinating author. Using Metamorphosis as a recurring example, Robertson shows how Kafka's work explores such modern themes as the power of institutions over people and the possibility of religion after "the death of God."
