Story
“One morning, as Gregor Samsa was waking up from anxious dreams, he discovered that in bed he had been changed into a monstrous verminous bug.” With this startlingly bizarre sentence, Kafka begins his masterpiece, The Metamorphosis. It is the story of a young traveling salesman who, transformed overnight into a giant, beetle-like insect, becomes an object of disgrace to his family, an outsider in his own home, a quintessentially alienated man. Rather than being surprised at the transformation, the members of his family despise it as an impending burden upon themselves.

Story
Life has the capacity of great moments and attainment, of lives well lived, fulfilling for ourselves and for those we touch. But for others life is arduous. There is no spark to ignite the curiosity, to explore and achieve a stability and a growth to their lives. Indeed their lives, in their own eyes, become almost meaningless, their sense of themselves subsumed under a myriad of problems, whether real or imagined. Seismic events in a life might crush them; the loss of a loved one for instance. Coping is difficult, support hard to find and isolation abounds.

Story
In the bizarre world of Franz Kafka, salesmen turn into giant bugs, apes give lectures at college academies, and nightmares probe the mysteries of modern humanity’s unhappiness. More than any other modern writer in world literature, Kafka captures the loneliness and misery that fill the lives of 20th-century humanity.

Story
Joseph K., cadre de banque, est arrêté chez lui, un beau matin, sans raison, le jour de son trentième anniversaire. Si on le laisse libre d’aller et venir, il ne cesse de se heurter à des obstacles absurdes, à des êtres étranges, à une réalité qui semble se dérober à mesure qu’il tente de percer le mystère de son " arrestation ". Une justice invisible mais menaçante, qui ne définit jamais la faute qu’il a pu commettre, le cerne de toutes parts.

Story
En una noche aparentemente común, Georg Bendemann encuentra su vida patas arriba cuando su padre le impone una sentencia inexplicable pero definitiva. Qué delitos ha cometido Georg para merecer tal castigo? La historia explora los intrincados laberintos del deber, la culpa y la autoridad moral. Cada palabra, cada silencio, contribuye a un climax inquietante que obliga a los lectores a cuestionar las nociones preconcebidas de justicia y amor filial. Este cuento es un espejo oscuro donde cada uno de nosotros puede ver reflejadas nuestras propias sentencias.

Story
The first of Kafka’s three great novels, The Man Who Disappeared (America) follows the picaresque adventures of Karl Rossman, who is banished to America following a family scandal. Upon his arrival, Karl immediately happens upon his uncle, and from there follows a pattern of wandering, adoption and expulsion as Karl marches inexorably on towards the interior of the continent. With its blitheness and comical moments, The Man Who Disappeared is perhaps the most charming of Kafka’s works.

Story
Benedict Cumberbatch reads the enduring classic of Franz Kafka's Metamorphosis. Gregor Samsa wakes to discover that he has turned into a large, monstrous insect-like creature. He attempts to adjust to his new condition as he deals with being burdensome to his parents and sister, who are repelled by the horrible creature he has become. First published in 1915, Kafka's darkly comic novella explores concepts such as the absurdity of life, alienation and the disconnect between mind and body.

Story
A terrifying psychological trip into the life of one Joseph K., an ordinary man who wakes up one day to find himself accused of a crime he did not commit, a crime whose nature is never revealed to him. Once arrested, he is released, but must report to court on a regular basis - an event that proves maddening, as nothing is ever resolved. As he grows more uncertain of his fate, his personal life - including work at a bank and his relations with his landlady and a young woman who lives next door - becomes increasingly unpredictable.

Story
A land-surveyor, known only as K., arrives at a small village permanently covered in snow and dominated by a castle to which access seems permanently denied. K.'s attempts to discover why he has been called constantly run up against the peasant villagers, who are in thrall to the absurd bureaucracy that keeps the castle shut, and the rigid hierarchy of power among the self-serving bureaucrats themselves.

Reunir los cuentos de Franz Kafka (1883-1924) significa ofrecer en un solo volumen toda la ficción breve del autor, tanto la publicada en vida como todos los relatos dispersos que fueron publicados de manera póstuma, incluyendo La transformación, Un médico rural o Descripción de una lucha, su primer cuento escrito. Kafka es una de una de las mentes más singulares del siglo xx y una de las "formas de estar en la literatura" que más han influido en generaciones posteriores. Incluso, como hay quien se atreve a aventurar, en sus precursores.

A Brilliant new translation of the great writer's least Kafkaesque novel, based on a German-language text that was produced by a team of international scholars and that is more faithful to Kafka's original manuscript than anything we have had before. With the same expert balance of precision and nuance that marked his translation of Kafka's The Castle, the award-winning translator Mark Harman now restores the humor and particularity of language to Amerika.

One morning, traveling salesman Gregor Samsa wakes from an anxious dream to discover that he has inexplicably changed into a monstrous insect. Nonetheless, life goes on, and poor Gregor is left to deal not only with the existential questions of who or what he now is but also with more mundane concerns: his job (which he fears he’ll lose), his loved ones (whom he fears he disgusts), and the daily indignities of everyday life (which continue apace). Soon, even those who sympathize with his bizarre predicament begin to lose their patience....

Die letzten 46 Tage seines Lebens, vom 19. April bis zum 3. Juni 1924, verbrachte Franz Kafka in einem kleinen Sanatorium in Kierling bei Klosterneuburg. Kafkas Lebensgefährtin Dora Diamant war bei ihm, und später auch der befreundete Medizinstudent Robert Klopstock. Die Zeit ist von Kafkas tödlicher Krankheit, der Kehlkopftuberkulose, geprägt, aber auch von intensivem Austausch mit Familie, Freunden und Freundinnen, von Erinnerungen und Alltagsbeobachtungen, literarischen Vorhaben, Verzweiflung und Hoffnung. In diesem Podcast wird die Geschichte der letzten Tage Kafkas erzählt. Ein Tag ...
