It is the first volume in English to consider his deeply strange, resonantly humane letters and journal entries alongside his classic short fiction and lyrical vignettes. 'Transformed' is a vivid retranslation of one of Kafka's signature stories, 'Die Verwandlung,' commonly rendered in English as 'The Metamorphosis.' Composed of short, black-comic parables, fables, fairy tales, reflections, as well as classic stories like 'In the Penal Colony,' Kafka's uncanny foreshadowing of the Twentieth Century's nightmare, Konundrum refreshes the writer's mythic storytelling powers for a new generation of readers."-- $c Provided by publisher 546 $a In English, translated from the original German. 600 10 $a Kafka, Franz, $d 1883-1924 $v Translations into English. 650 0 $a Short stories, German $v Translations into English. 600 10 $a Kafka, Franz, $d 1883-1924 $v Correspondence. 600 10 $a Kafka, Franz, $d 1883-1924 $v Diaries. 700 1 $a Wortsman, Peter, $e translator. $e translator. 941 $a 2 952 $l USUX851 $d 20221103011602.0 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20180127022859.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=9EE19CECE9E711E69A6025A3DAD10320 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
