Description: The only available collection that brings together all of Kafka's stories--those published during his lifetime and those released after his death by literary executor Max Brod. Foreword by John Updike. "An important book, valuable in itself and absolutely fascinating".--New York Times.
Review Quotes: "[Kafka] spoke for millions in their new unease; a century after his birth, he seems the last holy writer, and the supreme fabulist of modern man's cosmic predicament."
--from the Foreword by John Updike
--W. H. Auden "An important book, valuable in itself and absolutely fascinating. The stories are dreamlike, allegorical, symbolic, parabolic, grotesque, ritualistic, nasty, lucent, extremely personal, ghoulishly detached, exquisitely comic, numinous, and prophetic."
--The New York Times
