Kafka (1883-1924) wrote most of this celebrated novel in 1914, but it was never finished. It was published posthumously in 1925 and first published in English in 1937. Our copy is an early reprint. Innovative illustrator, George Salter “was proud of (this) design... his illustrations suggest the ambiguity between the protagonist’s reality and the surreal events... “
