Book Reviews of Franz Kafka: The Complete Stories
Book Review: Doesn't Get More Influential than this
Summary: 5 Stars
This is the best of the best. Kafka is a lonely reclusive German man who sold insurance and wrote in his spare time. One of the most imaginative writers ever, and certainly one of the most influential. If you like anything written by Charlie Kaufman, he draws a lot of inspiration from Kafka. So do countless other writers. For the people who are unfamiliar, and maybe not open minded to Kafka it may be a strange experience. But, if you read his work ready for whatever is coming next, no matter how surreal, this will be an amazing experience.
Summary of Franz Kafka: The Complete Stories
Bringing together all of Kafka's stories including those released during his lifetime and others after his death, a complete anthology offers insight into his valuable literary contributions. Reprint.How many writers get their own adjective? The work of this terminally alienated master narrator of the subconscious demanded a new descriptor; I guess they gave up and just settled on "Kafkaesque." But if you ever wonder what the original Kafkaesque work was, take a look here. The book contains all of Kafka's short and longer stories -- everything but his three novels. Most of these stories weren't even published during the author's lifetime. The widely-anthologized The Metamorphosis is here, wherein Gregor Samsa awakes from uneasy dreams to find himself insectoidally transformed, as are equally lovely pieces like A Hunger Artist, A Country Doctor and A Little Woman.
