Franz Kafka was the poet of his own disorder. Throughout his life he struggled with a pervasive sense of shame and guilt that left traces in his daily existence in his many letters, in his extensive diaries, and especially in his fiction. This stimulating book investigates some of the sources of Kafka s personal anguish and its complex reflections in his imaginary world.
In his query, Saul Friedlander probes major aspects of Kafka s life (family, Judaism, love and sex, writing, illness, and despair) that until now have been skewed by posthumous censorship. Contrary to Kafka's dying request that all his papers be burned, Max Brod, Kafka s closest friend and literary executor, editedand publishedthe author s novels and other works soon after his death in 1924. Friedlander shows that, when reinserted in Kafka s letters and diaries, deleted segments lift the mask of sainthood frequently attached to the writer and thus restore previously hidden aspects of his individuality."
