Kafka s Relatives: Their Lives and His Writings

By Anthony Northey

Kafka's extended family, or Mischpoche, often inspired his creative writings. In this work of literary detection, Anthony Northey traces the background of the Kafka clan. The information he provides shows Kafka's family origins in a clearer light, points out unexpected connections between the lives of Kafka's relatives and his fiction, and offers a fuller picture of social and commercial activities during the Belle Epoque.
