A propos du livre

Biographie de l'auteur

Franz Kafka (born July 3, 1883 in Prague, Austria-Hungary; died June 3, 1924 in Klosterneuburg-Kierling, Austria. Sometimes also known in Czech as Frantisek Kafka) was a German-speaking author. The main body of his work consists of three unfinished novels (The Trial, The Castle and Amerika: The Missing Person) and numerous short stories. The majority of Kafka's works were only published after his death – contrary to his final wishes – by Max Brod, a close friend and confidant whom Kafka had appointed his executor. Kafka's works are counted among the undisputed canon of world literature.

Présentation de l'éditeur

Description of a Struggle is a three-part story written by Franz Kafka between 1903 and 1907. It constitutes his oldest surviving work and was only published after his death. The first and third sections describe Prague society- and night-life from the point of view of the author and his acquaintance. The central section can be viewed as a fantastical dream sequence divided into several sub-sections.

Kafka wrote two versions of this story.
