Product detailed description
Franz Kafka (July 3, 1883, Prague – June 3, 1924, Kierling near Klosterneuburg); Jewish name Anshel (אנשיל), was a german-writing novelist and short-story writer, widely regarded as one of the major figures of 20th-century literature. His best known works include The Metamorphosis, The Trial and The Castle. The term "Kafkaesque" has entered the English language to describe situations like those found in his writing.
Kafka trained as a lawyer and after completing his legal education was employed full-time by an insurance company. He became engaged to several women but never married. He was a non-smoker, an abstinent and a vegetarian. He died at the age 40 from tuberculosis. Almost his whole life was connected with prague. In a letter to Oskar Pollak in 1902 he wrote: "Prague will not let go. Neither you nor me. This mother has claws. You have to adapt, or - . We would have to set it on fire from two sides, at Vyšehrad and Hradčany, then perhaps we would have managed to escape."
