Amerika by Franz Kafka

Amerika by Franz Kafka

Sixteen-year-old Karl Rossmann is sent to America by his parents after a scandal with a housemaid. He arrives in New York harbour and sees the Statue of Liberty holding a sword.

Kafka never visited America and got the details gloriously wrong, which is part of the charm. Karl is passed from an uncle to a hotel to two men who exploit him, and each time he is punished for being reasonable. It is the funniest and most openly picaresque of the three novels, and like the others it was left unfinished.

Kafka's first novel, published after his death. The lightest way into his work.
