Description:

Slipcased in a giant "K," this beautiful book looks at three treatments of Kafka by Martin Kippenberger, Orson Welles and Tangerine Dream

Gathering three works by Martin Kippenberger, Orson Welles and Tangerine Dream inspired by Kafka's uncompleted novels Amerika, The Trial and The Castle, K is also a tribute to the publishers and translators of Kafka, and their republication of texts or first translations into English or Italian. The preferred editions of the three novels in English and Italian republished in K are those translated from the restored versions of the German texts.

The structure of the book is led by archival documents with cross-references shown next to the texts representing correspondences with Kafka's thinking.
