With masterful attentiveness to the intricacies of Kafkas dialect of Prague German, this is an essential selection of forty-four stories, including such timeless works of fiction as The Metamorphosis, In the Penal Colony, and The Judgment. Brought into the present by a foreword from Ling Ma, Kafkas work has never been more relevant to contemporary literature-nor has Kafka himself ever been a keener observer of the human condition, with his singular apprehension of power, the absurd, and the enigma and alienation at the center of modern living.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"SCRIBNER","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52207721054496,"sku":"NEW0684800705","price":13.87,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/71OmaREhN_L.jpg?v=1787124972","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/the-metamorphosis-in-the-penal-colony-and-other-stories-0684800705","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
