Sometimes staring into the abyss lets me surpass my panic and find a certain peace that motivates me.
For example after reading “Before The Law” I thought to myself “I wonder what the man’s life would’ve been like if he chose not to seek entrance into the law, but instead lived by his own principles. It could’ve been a whole different story.”
That one on the image. Metamorphosis is a fun short book that you show you what Kafka is about.
On the other hand, The Trial is a long, heavy book that will make you feel like you have gone crazy. Personally, I can’t stand this one. (Though, it’s because it’s very good on what it intends to do.)
Metamorphosis is the go-to Kafka book. I personally find The Trial the most “kafkian” of his novels, and I love it, but Amerika has a special place in my heart as what defines his literature is trying to find a way out, like a little seedling.
I feel like I should read at least one book by Kafka. Any recommendations?
Apparently The Trial is his masterpiece.
none if you like happiness
