You went nowhere today, I know because I was hiding in the bushes outside your house and you only came outside briefly to collect that Amazon parcel.

The museum is actually small and boring.

The photos of the books under glass pretty much sums it up. There's a bland telephone exhibit has nothing to do with Kafka, either.

OP, did you bother going to the New Jewish Cemetary in Žižkov to see his grave?

Yeah I've been to the old town cemetery many times but this is the first time I have been to the Kafka museum and you're right, unless you are Kafka obsessed then this museum isn't really worth it.

It's really expensive too.

I know, sometimes I think Kafka deliberately wrote his stories in a way which forces you to read them repeatedly, and every time I do I reach a different conclusion about it's meaning.

I actually did have /lit/ partly in my mind, but mainly it's because I promised my Kafka loving friend that i'd take pictures of the museum for him.
