Paperback. Franz Kafka was a self-conscious writer whose texts were highly if mysteriously autobiographical. Three giants of contemporary fiction - J M Coetzee, Philip Roth, and W G Sebald - have acknowledged their debt to the work of Kafka. This work shows that the use of Kafka by Coetzee, Roth, and Sebald is similarly self-reflexive and autobiographical. Series Editor(s): Perloff, Marjorie; Rumold, Rainer. Series: Avant-garde and Modernism Studies. Num Pages: 296 pages. BIC Classification: DSBH; DSK. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly; (UU) Undergraduate.
