Zadie Smith on Kafka
A brilliantly-argued essay that casts new light on the author of The Trial
Thank you SO much for that link. I am reading all of Kafka and studying him at the moment, and Smith's essay is so fresh compared to much of what I have been encountering. A really great essay. Cheers! LM
