The Metamorphosis, in the Penal Colony and Other Stori
The Metamorphosis, in the Penal Colony and Other Stori: The Great Short Works of Franz Kafka | Franz Kafka
Translated by PEN translation award-winner Joachim Neugroschel, The Metamorphosis, In the Penal Colony, and Other Stories has garnered critical acclaim and is widely recognized as the preeminent English-language anthology of Kafka's stories. These translations illuminate one of this century's most controversial writers and have made Kafka's work accessible to a whole new generation. This classic collection of forty-one great short works -- including such timeless pieces of modern fiction as "The Judgment" and "The Stoker" -- now includes two new stories, "First Sorrow" and "The Hunger Artist."

Variable collection of the fiction Kafka published during his lifetime. Some weird, some just "huh"? Actually the best was a piece of travel writing. Who knew people drove by car to an airshow in 1909?

the_need_to_read I really like it so far! I am not that far into it and actually just picked it by accident. I am kind of glad I did. 9y
