Rendition During Books Stories 1904-1924
From the expressionism of his early prose pieces to his very last work, JOSEPHINE, these stories cover the full range of Kafka's writing career, culminating in THE METAMORPHOSIS, which Elias Canetti described as "one of the few great and perfect works of poetic imagination written during this century." Kafka's stories, argues Borges in his foreword, are superior even to his novels, which is why this collection "gives us the full dimesion of this unique writer.' J.A Underwood's acclaimed translation gives the reader all the chilling atmosphere of Kafka's darkly comic universe, as reflected in the commanding precision of his language.List Books Supposing Stories 1904-1924

His unique body of writingmuch of which is incomplete and which was mainly published posthumouslyis considered to be among the most influential in Western literature.His stories include "TheAn excellent way to get into Kafka, containing most if not all, his short-story's, and his masterpiece, the novella "Metamorphosis".As good a writer as Kafka was, his novels are most definitely worth reading and some are indeed masterpieces in their own right ("The Trial" pops into mind), but as a short story writer his writing excelled and he is in my opinion one of the all-time-greatest when it comes to mastering the smaller formats. Including such great story's such as his, in his own

The many short stories of Franz in a distinct voice marked by Kafka of intense thoroughness of any kind of writing. Metamorphosis; Investigation of a Dog; The Great Wall of China; The Judgement; and many more.
