i am kafka but i wish i was milena in their relationship, in the sense of kafka being completely engulfed in her. the longing, the intensity of the emotions, the contradicting thoughts. all were very moving, especially when one can relate to many of the points he is making. it’s such a shame that their relationship couldn’t be sustained with such a deep attachment. it’s upsetting that milena was unable to leave her husband to be with kafka, and the fact that their relationship took place while she was married isn’t right, but i am glad kafka made the call in the end to not continue, because it was so exhausting and unfair to him. although we only see kafka’s perspective, their exchange of thoughts and emotions make me feel as though he was the one who cared more, especially for how long and how often he would write her without receiving a response. i read this at the perfect time, one where i’m able to understand where he comes from, why he thinks the way he does, why he feels the way he does, why he cares for her and loves her so much. 4.5.
The letters shattered my soul into little pieces and put them back together, made me want to forget it and then read them again and again, made me cry and roll on the floor.

rip franz & milena, they would have loved emails, instant messaging, facetime, etcetera …
“Mira, Robinson tuvo que alistarse en el barco, hacer la peligrosa travesía, naufragar y mucho más; yo sólo tendría que perderte a ti y ya sería Robinson. Pero sería más Robinson que él. Él tenía la isla y a Viernes y muchas otras cosas, y finalmente el barco que le recogió y que convirtió casi todo en un sueño; yo no tendría nada, ni siquiera el nombre, también te lo he dado a ti.”
Uno de los mejores libros que he de leer en mi vida, un manifiesto de las raíces de un amor invisible, un conjunto de textos que unían almas a través de la distancia. Me ha gustado en gran manera explorar la faceta de la vida personal de Kafka, su escritura es una joya universal, puedo decir que terminé el libro profundamente conmovida, tras enojarme, reír y llorar junto a Kafka y Milena.
Definitivamente lo disfrute bastante y no espero para leer más de Kafka.
