Description
America, Franz Kafka's first novel, is a haunting and humorous tale of youthful disillusionment. After being sent to America by his parents following an embarrassing incident, Karl Rossman finds himself embroiled in a series of bizarre adventures that threaten to ensnare him forever.
With its characteristic blend of dark humour and optimism, Kafka's distinctive voice shines through in this translation by Willa and Edwin Muir. As Karl navigates the ever-more unreal and oppressive system he finds himself in, the boundaries between reality and fantasy begin to blur.
This edition of America is a testament to Kafka's enduring influence on 20th-century literature, offering a unique glimpse into the author's unique vision and style.
