Generally known by his two great novels, The Trial and The Castle, Kafka was also a master of other narrative forms: the tale, the parable, the vignette, and even the epigram. This collection of his stories includes all the available shorter fiction, edited, arranged and introduced by Gabriel Josipovici in ways which bring out the writer’s extraordinary range and intensity of vision.
Franz Kafka’s imagination so far outstripped the forms and conventions of the literary tradition he inherited that he was forced to turn that tradition inside out in order to tell his splendid, mysterious tales that are scrupulously naturalistic on the surface and uncanny in their depths.
This edition of his stories includes all his available shorter fiction in a collection edited, arranged, and introduced by Gabriel Josipovici in ways that bring out the writer’s extraordinary range and intensity of vision.
Everyman’s Library pursues the highest production standards, printing on acid-free cream-colored paper, with full-cloth cases with two-color foil stamping, decorative endpapers, silk ribbon markers, European-style half-round spines, and a full-color illustrated jacket. Contemporary Classics include an introduction, a select bibliography, and a chronology of the author’s life and times.
