Özet

When Franz Kafka died in 1924, his loyal friend Max Brod could not bring himself to fulfill Kafka's last instruction: to burn his manuscripts. Instead, Brod devoted his life to championing Kafka's writing, rescuing his legacy from obscurity and physical destruction. Nearly a century later, an international legal battle erupted to determine which country could claim ownership of Kafka's work: Israel, where he dreamed of living, or Germany, where his three sisters perished in the Holocaust.

Benjamin Balint offers a gripping account of the controversial trial in Israeli courts - brimming with dilemmas legal, ethical, and political - that determined the fate of the oeuvre. Kafka's Last Trial is a brilliant biographical portrait of a literary genius as well as the story of two countries whose national obsession with overcoming the traumas of the past came to a head in a hotly contested trial for the right to claim the literary legacy of one of our modern masters.

I grant that the topic itself has some merit, but why on Earth would you choose a narrator for a book on Kafka and his editor Max Brod, who hasn’t got a clue about the pronunciation of German? If you’re familiar with Kafka’s work, you will struggle to recognise which texts the author is talking about due to incomprehensible pronunciation.

An excellent and comprehensive work - it would be useful to have a PDF of the sources which I assume are included in the Print Format.
