"I am made up of literature" Franz Kafka

With a new foreword by S. Fischer classics editor Sebastian Guggolz

With his novels, stories, and parables, many of which remained unfinished and still retain their mystery, Franz Kafka is one of the definitive central figures of modern literature. No one can be left cold by reading his work. It challenges and moves us.

The selection volume "Scattered Anticipation and Other Parables" appears for the first time in this compilation. It collects Kafka's short stories that are called parables, the still hot topicality of Kafka and his never aging visionary literary ideas is shown, even 100 years after his death.
