TERROR OF ART AND KAFKA CONVERSATIONS REVIEW
Maurice Dunlevy reviews two Kafka related books, noting More Sage than Mystic ITH and The Terror of Art by Greenberg. He argues Kafka in these works reads like a sage rather than a recluse, with aphorisms but the books overall lack coherence, are poorly crafted, yet offer some insights for specialists into works like The Beetle and narrative technique.
