Kafkaesque: Fourteen Stories by Franz Kafka (English) Paperback Book

Description: Kafkaesque by Franz Kafka, Peter Kuper Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description Award-winning graphic novelist Peter Kuper presents a mesmerising interpretation of fourteen iconic Kafka short stories. Publisher Description Long fascinated with the work of Franz Kafka, Peter Kuper began illustrating his stories in 1988. Initially drawn to the masters dark humor, Kuper adapted the stories over the years to plumb their deeper truths. Kupers style deliberately evokes Lynd Ward and Frans Masereel, contemporaries of Kafka whose wordless novels captured much of the same claustrophobia and mania as Kafkas tales. Working from new translations of the classic texts, Kuper has reimagined these iconic stories for the twenty-first century, using setting and perspective to comment on contemporary issues like civil rights and homelessness. Longtime lovers of Kafka will appreciate Kupers innovative interpretations, while Kafka novices will discover a haunting introduction to some of the great writers most beguiling stories, including "A Hunger Artist," "In The Penal Colony," and "The Burrow." Kafkaesque stands somewhere between adaptation and wholly original creation, going beyond a simple illustration of Kafkas words to become a stunning work of art.
