So far this is pretty damned informative, and of course, Crumb captures the essence of the subject. Superb. OK, nearly done with this. A good primer to Kafka's life, world and art. Not only covers the topic in a non-pretentious way, but takes some good ribbing at the snobs who succeed in making Kafka no fun. Crumb's imagery is hypnotic. Highly recommended. I have a newer 2007 edition of this with a better cover: Kafka as drawn by Crumb sitting alone writing at a desk with KAFKA spelled in big white letters above him with the black bug legs from Metamorphosis rising behind them.
I cried.
