Thanks Phillip! I will look into The Judgement. I'm also curious about your book, that's great! Cheers

Thank you! This is great advice. I have added The Trial to my list, and we'll see where that takes me!

Hello!

I am interested in reading some of Kafka's work, mostly so that I will better understand references to him/his writing in other books that I read. I'm really not sure where to start or what would give me the best idea of his writing style/message/approach/personality. I'm considering the Metamorphosis, Amerika, and The Castle. Thoughts?

Thanks for your input!
