"Kill me, or you're a murderer." These are the last words Franz Kafka utters as he begs his friend, medical student Robert Klopstock, to give him another dose of morphine. His life partner Dora Diamant is on duty at his bedside, while Ottl's sister, whom he loves with all his soul, awaits news in Prague.
The novel divides the world into two states - Kafka's life and life after Kafka.
The first, measured part tells us about the last years of the writer's life, where the author elaborates on the entire biography of Franz. The second part of the book is about the fate of three people close to him. Robert, Dora and Ottla played a major role in the writer's life, and the very presence of Kafka in their lives and his writings made an unimaginable imprint on their fates.
Other characters of Kafkaian legend are also present: Milena, Max Brod and, of course, the city of Prague. The story moves from Austro-Hungarian sanatoriums to 1970s New York City.
This well-researched study recreates the world as Kafka saw it, based on letters, diaries, and testimonies of contemporaries.
