This Kafka is pretty average. Only famous because of surreal shit and criticising totalitarianism before it was cool.

There exists an employee performance appraisal of Kafka by his bosses at the insurance company in which they praise him for having superb administrative skills.

The original word Kafka used was actually ambiguous regarding species. The original term used was 'Ungeziefer', which translates as 'unclean animal not suitable for sacrifice,' with the implication being that it's an ugly sort of insect.

>>6971495
Isn't that the whole point of something being 'Kafkaesque'? I thought the word referred to something that's incomprehensibly bizarre.

>> No.6973382

yeah I read the metamorphosis and it seemed pretty average...i guess it must have been revolutionary for the time?
