About This Item
New York: Schocken Books. Very Good with no dust jacket. 1975. Trade Paperback. 0805208496 . Translated by Willa and Edwin Muir. Trade paperback with light soiling to the text blocks, and corners, back cover corners are slightly upturned and there is wear to the spine ends and hinges. Very clean interior with a solid binding. "Kafka's stories--bleak, painfully comic, enigmatic--are invariably about man's alienation from daily life, but he creates a rich variety of worlds, from the absurdity of the hunger artist in his cage, to Gregor Samsa's vividly imagined transformation into a cockroach, to the profoundly ironic view of capital punishment in "In the Penal Colony." ; Schocken Classics; 0.8 x 7.9 x 5 Inches; 317 pages .
