From the author of
The Metamorphosis
and
The Trial
and one of the greatest writers of the twentieth century, his first—and funniest—novel.
Amerika
tells the story of the young Karl Rossmann who, after an incident involving a housemaid, is banished by his parents to America. Expected to redeem himself in this magical land of opportunity, young Karl is swept up instead in a whirlwind of dizzying reversals, strange escapades, and picaresque adventures.
Kafka began writing what he had entitled
Der Verschollene
(
The Missing Person
) in 1912 and wrote the last completed chapter in 1914. But it wasn’t until 1927, three years after his death, that Max Brod, Kafka’s friend and literary executor, edited the unfinished manuscript and published it as
Amerika.
