Left unfinished by Kafka in 1922 and not published until 1926, two years after his death, The Castle is the haunting tale of K.'s relentless, unavailing struggle with an inscrutable authority in order to gain access to the Castle. Scrupulously following the fluidity and breathlessness of the sparsely punctuated original manuscript, Mark Harman's new translation reveals levels of comedy, energy, and visual power previously unknown to English language readers.

Kafka's letters to Felice Bauer were written between 1912 and 1917, during which time they were twice engaged to be married.

Franz Kafka is one of the most important figures in twentieth-century culture. The fascination of his work has long since reached international proportions, and the concept 'Kafkaesque' has entered the English Language as an everyday part of speech. This new edition of Kafka's famous story contains a critical introduction and notes which help to explain how the author achieves his particular effects.

This letter is the closest that Kafka came to setting down his autobiography. He was driven to write it by his father's opposition to his engagement with Julie Wohryzek. The marriage did not take place; the letter was not delivered.

La metamorfosis (Die Verwandlung, en su titulo original en aleman) es un relato de Franz Kafka, que narra la historia de Gregorio Samsa, un comerciante de telas que vive con su familia a la que el mantiene con su sueldo, que un buen dia amanece convertido en una criatura no identificada claramente en ningun momento, pero que tiende a ser reconocida como una especie de cucaracha gigante. Breve e intensa, es calificada a veces como "relato existencialista.""
