This little parable, like a fairy story, is utterly unlike most people’s idea of Kafka, reading like an enigmatic tale for children:
Reading this story to his daughters – and seeing their delighted reaction – inspired Matthue Roth to create My First Kafka: Runaways, Rodents, and Giant Bugs, which is published this week.
The idea is long overdue – for almost a century, Kafka has been imprisoned in a Kafkaesque prison not of his own making.
It’s high time someone set him free.
