Description: A compelling and influential work of Kafka criticism, Kafka: The Terror of Art explores the profound psychological, philosophical, and cultural dimensions of Franz Kafka’s writing. Martin Greenberg—distinguished poet, translator, and literary scholar—offers one of the most insightful interpretations of Kafka’s world, examining alienation, modernity, and the existential tension inherent in Kafka’s art.

Significance: Author-inscribed copies of Greenberg’s Kafka studies are scarce, and this association-style inscription enhances collectibility. A desirable volume for collectors of Kafka, modernism, and literary criticism.
