  • Franz Kafka (3 July 1883 - 3 June 1924) was a German-speaking Bohemian novelist and short-story writer, widely regarded as one of the major figures of 20th-century literature. His work fuses elements of realism and the fantastic. It typically features isolated protagonists facing bizarre or surrealistic predicaments and incomprehensible socio-bureaucratic powers. It has been interpreted as exploring themes of alienation, existential anxiety, guilt, and absurdity. His best known works include "Die Verwandlung" ("The Metamorphosis"), Der Process (The Trial), and Das Schloss (The Castle). The term Kafkaesque has entered English to describe situations like those found in his writing.

    Kafka was a Cosmic Gift and his work can help sensitive Souls feel less alone.

    What an extraordinary person he was. His writing revealed only a fraction of his agony.

    He suffered much. Apparently his writings are expressive of this. It is good to have balance in life, and in what one reads. Remember, one has one's own life to live. We can only make our lives more positive and better by appreciating and being grateful for all the beauty and love we have available to us here - then strive to do good in the best way we are able. His personal life is not ours to know, and we cannot comprehend what the author never shared - but he had a good life as far as is known. A good life.

    Listening with half an ear while dozing. In this state, I realized that Kafka's stories are like dreams. You never quite know what is happening or why, and you never get the answer before you wake up..

    Not bad as a "bare bones" chronicle of Kafka's life, but certainly an author of his stature, comparable to Joyce and Hemingway in his influence on later writers (not to mention the artist who best epitomizes our "Age of Anxiety") deserves more than a half-hour overview. Something far more comprehensive is needed, an in-depth exploration which covers all three of his novels (not just "The Trial") as well as his powerful short stories --- "The Metamorphosis," "In the Penal Colony," "A Hunger Artist," and others. This might entail a multi-part series running several hours --- but why not? What explains the comparative neglect of such a unique and original artist?

      Sadly, 30 minute about an author is too long for most people. Especially since most have never read his works.

    He continued his government job for 15 years, from the age of 20 to 35, and retired voluntarily with a pension.

    I'm sure he read Socrates. Nothing new under the sun only borrowed, sometimes very well. Reminding. awakening again n again.

    Geez. Ditch the ding=dong noise, please! Way too loud for anyone hearing impaired, as it competes with the narrative annoyingly. Otherwise, not bad for a brief overview of Kafka.

    Nuts. Intrusive background "music" wins. I can't watch any more. I quit.

    Sadly enough, Frantz Kafka was probably fortunate to have died so young. Had he survived into the 1930s he would have faced with the horrors of Nazism. He would have been would almost certainly deported to a concentration camp. I'm reasonably sure that any writings of his would have been burned by Nazi barbarians

    I guess it's just me but I do not care for his writing at all. Never found it to be interesting or enjoyable reading. His stories never made any sense to me kind of like abstract art. Personally I think he was off his rocker.

    His life and works have long since fascinated me, but after 7 minutes of plinky-plonky irritating noise, I had to turn the shit off. No doubt an interesting video destroyed by a poor choice of noise with too frequent appearances and repetition, with levels too high. Well done 👎
