Kafka and Son

Work:: Kafka and Son (S592247613)

At the age of 36, Franz Kafka was still living at home, a petty bureaucrat, a failed artist, a timid Jewish son. Ruling and ruining his life was his overbearing father, Hermann. What to do? Kafka wrote, in this case, a 50 page letter to his father in which he reveals deep connections between his life and his fiction. As he confesses in the letter "All my writing was about you." Adapted from this monumental (and undelivered) letter, Kafka and Son is a blistering, often hilarious, dissection of domestic authority, and a revelatory visit with one of the architects of the modern psyche.
