One of the most influential writers in recent memory is Franz Kafka. He is renowned for his singularly dark, strange, and fantastical writing. Anything that mimics a certain style and quality that still exists is said to as Kafkaesque. To comprehend his writing's Kafkaesque characteristics It is beneficial to comprehend his early years. The couple Hermann and Julie had a son named Kafka in Prague in 1883. His dad was a highly successful, wealthy businessman who, as parents often do, rose from the working class, built a great company, married an educated woman, and joined the upper middle class via pure force of will and an outspoken, assertive attitude. Hermann desired a child who would be as tall as his ideal human being. That was not Franz Kafka. Franz was a little, fearful, and ill child at birth, and he largely stayed that way as an adult. Franz ended up being his father's worst disappointment and a kind of psychological punching bag as he tried to change him into the person he always wanted to be but was unable to be.
