Ronald Hayman's brilliant portrayal of the tormented man and the inspired writerguarantees its status as the classic account of Kafka's life.Hayman shows how the unique writings of this extraordinary man force us to reconsider all our assumptions about how to divide fiction from fact;for,obsessively,Kafka used literature as a means of putting himself on trial,of enacting the terrible conflicts of his day-to-day existence.
