Kafka

Also known as: Kafka: Classics in Comics, カフカ 《Classics in Comics》

by Franz Kafka, Nishioka Kyoudai

A sublimely eerie manga adaptation of classic Kafka stories, with a starkly beautiful illustration style – part of Pushkin's second series of Japanese novellas. Nine of Franz Kafka's most memorable tales are here given fresh life with dazzling graphic renderings by the brother-and sister manga creators Nishioka Kyodai . With their distinctive, surreal style of illustration, they have reimagined the fantastic, the imperceptible and the bizarre in Kafka's work, creating a hauntingly powerful visual world. These stories of enigmatic figures and uncanny transformations are stripped to their core, offering profound new understandings. 1. The Cares of a Family Man 2. The Metamorphosis 3. The Bucket Rider 4. Jackals and Arabs 5. A Fratricide 6. The Vulture 7. A Country Doctor 8. A Hunger Artist 9. In the Penal Colony
