Some of the stories I was really entranced by and really made me think - The Metamorphosis, In the Penal Colony, The Hunger Artist, Josephine

The others were almost inscrutable to me. This made it frustrating reading a collection. Maybe it was some lost context or not “getting it” but it made it hard to finish the whole collection

kafka’s works are indescribably alluring. he brings to the surface our most hated thoughts and anxieties about ourselves and leaves them out to rot: exposed and in the open for everyone to watch the decay.
