"Dramatic and illuminating...[R]aises momentous questions about nationality, religion, literature, and even the Holocaust." Adam Kirsch, The Atlantic
When Franz Kafka died in 1924, his loyal friend Max Brod could not bring himself to fulfill Kafka's last instruction: to burn his remaining manuscripts. Instead, Brod devoted his life to championing Kafka's work, rescuing his legacy from both obscurity and physical destruction. Nearly a century later, an international legal battle erupted to determine which country could claim ownership: the Jewish state, where Kafka dreamed of living, or Germany, where Kafka's three sisters perished in the Holocaust? Benjamin Balint offers a gripping account of the controversial trial in Israeli courtsbrimming with dilemmas legal, ethical, and politicalthat determined the fate of Kafka's manuscripts.
