內容簡介

This collection brings together the stories that Kafka allowed to be published during his lifetime. To Max Brod， his literary executor， he wrote： “Of all my writings the only books that can stand are these.”

作者簡介

Franz Kafka was born in 1883 in Prague, where he lived most of his life. During his lifetime, he published only a few short stories, including “The Metamorphosis,” “The Judgment,” and “The Stoker.” He died in 1924, before completing any of his full-length novels. At the end of his life, Kafka asked his lifelong friend and literary executor Max Brod to burn all his unpublished work. Brod overrode those wishes.

精彩書評

“Kafka’s survey of the insectile situation of young Jews in inner Bohemia can hardly be improved upon： ‘With their posterior legs they were still glued to their father’s Jewishness and with their wavering anterior legs they found no new ground.’ There is a sense in which Kafka’s Jewish question (‘What have I in common with Jews?’) has become everybody’s question， Jewish alienation the template for all our doubts. What is Muslimness? What is femaleness? What is Polishness? These days we all find our anterior legs flailing before us. We’re all insects， all Ungeziefer， now.”
—Zadie Smith

“Kafka engaged in no technical experiments whatsoever; without in any way changing the German language， he stripped it of its involved constructions until it became clear and simple， like everyday speech purified of slang and negligence. The common experience of Kafka’s readers is one of general and vague fascination， even in stories they fail to understand， a precise recollection of strange and seemingly absurd images and descriptions—until one day the hidden meaning reveals itself to them with the sudden evidence of a truth simple and incontestable.”
—Hannah Arendt?

這套書是知乎推薦的，還不錯

卡夫卡的中篇小說，非常推薦

已經不知道第幾次在京東買到有摺損的書籍瞭，奈何價格跟打起摺來京東確實實惠，書目也廣泛。每次在自營店買書都不得不抱著抽奬的心態，大約兩三成的書都有過摺損或封裝問題。

比起有摺痕的審判和舊過街邊二手書的雪國，這本書皮就算會翹起來我也沒什麼很意外的瞭

不錯，應該是正版

非常不錯的一本小說原著，很推薦

卡夫卡的長篇代錶作，英譯本還是比較靠譜的，推薦一讀。

非常棒的小說，毛邊本設計，封麵也是非常美觀

非常經典的一本小說，很推薦
