A brilliant new translation of Kafka’s best-known work, published for the 125th anniversary of his birth This collection of new translations brings together the small proportion of Kafka’s works that he thought worthy of publication. It includes
Metamorphosis, his most famous work, an exploration of horrific transformation and alienation;
Meditation, a collection of his earlier studies;
The Judgement, written in a single night of frenzied creativity;
The Stoker, the first chapter of a novel set in America and a fascinating occasional piece,
The Aeroplanes at Brescia, Kafka’s eyewitness account of an air display in 1909. Together, these stories reveal the breadth of Kafka’s literary vision and the extraordinary imaginative depth of his thought.
For the 125th anniversary of Kafka's birth comes an astonishing new translation of his best-known stories, in a spectacular graphic package.
"I think of a Kafka story as a perfect work of literary art, as approachable as it is strange, and as strange as it is approachable."
—Michael Hofmann
