I wonder how good he is untranslated.
Currently reading the trial.
I like Kafka, he is entertaining. More authors should be like him.

I read the Modern library copy of the trial and liked it a lot, although like almost everything he wrote its unpolished and unfinished and kind of falls apart at the end

Thinking back on it now, the bit where he hands the business about giving the manufacturer a loan over to the other banking guy and watches the snow fall out his window is comfy as fuck.

I thought that the end of the metamorphosis was great and could hardly be better.
I still have to finish the trial tho

Yeah that's why I said most, I think the metamorphosis and a book of short poems and stories were the only things he ever really finished, polished up, and published.

I never got into ‘The Trial’. I really liked ‘Metamorphosis’, but Trial really wasn’t working.
