R. Crumb

David Zane Mairowitz

Part illustrated biography, part comics adaptation, R. Crumb's Kafka is a vibrant biography that examines this Czech writer and his works in a way that a bland textbook never could! R. Crumb's Kafka is a work of art in its own right, a very rare example of what happens when one very idiosyncratic artist absorbs another into his world view without obliterating the individuality of the absorbed one. Crumb's art is filled with Kafka's insurmountable neuroses. They are all there: Gregor Samsa's sister, the luscious Milena Jesenska, the Advocate's 'nurse' Leni, Olda and Frieda, and the ravishing Dora Diamant—drawn in that mixture of self-command, tantalizing knowingness and sly sexuality—that Amazonian randiness and thick-limbed physicality that is Crumb.

R. Crumb's Kafka

This book, helping us to see beyond the cliche Kafkaesque, is illustrated by legendary underground artist Robert Crumb.

Introducing Kafka

Franz Kafka

The Trial, reinvented in this graphic novel, is the chilling and bleakly amusing tale of Joseph K, a man arrested for reasons that are never revealed and who maintains his innocence in the face of the judicial process. Kafka's works have come to embody the mix of absurd, surreal and mundane which have given rise to the adjective kafkaesque. The Eye Classics series transforms some of the most important European and world classics into graphic novels, making them accessible to a wide audience.
