Editorial Reviews

Product Description
four stories, tr Kevin Blahut, illus H Vlcnovska

From the Publisher
The three volumes Twisted Spoon has published Contemplation, A Country Doctor, and A Hunger Artist represent the collections of stories that Kafka had published during his lifetime. Though each volume has its own distinctive character, they have most often appeared in English in collected editions. They are presented here as separate editions, in new translations, each with its own illustrator from the Prague community.

5.0 out of 5 stars Kafka is a dream, March 20, 2000
By Eliot Cohen (Providence, RI USA) - See all my reviews
If you have read Kafka you won't need my advice. But if you haven't, I recommend you to buy this book, "A Hunger Artist" is an incredibly impressive short story. It plays with reality and imagination and at the end it all seems like a dream. Also take a look at Kafka's diaries.
