A clear and engaging introduction aimed at students, lay readers and academics, which presents Kafka's works in a new light. Combines close readings with an account of his wider cultural and historical context, as well as drawing on textual material which is unavailable to English-speaking readers.

Über diesen Titel

Críticas

'Sprightly and astute ... an excellent guide that has much to offer readers new to Kafka's web as well as those already snared.' Times Literary Supplement

'It is genuinely refreshing to read a book on Kafka without an agenda or all-encompassing thesis about how to interpret Kafka and what our earlier readings were missing - even if such books also have their time and place ... The book will be useful to general readers, students at all levels, and literary scholars who might be familiar with some of Kafka's works and are looking to read more.' Kata Gellen, German Studies Review
