@FranzKafka
Franz Kafka was a German-speaking Jewish writer born in Prague (then part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, now the Czech Republic). Widely regarded as one of the most influential figures in 20th-century literature, Kafka’s works explore themes of alienation, existential dread, and the absurdity of modern life.
Despite writing some of the most profound works of modern literature, Kafka lived a relatively obscure and troubled life. He worked as a lawyer and insurance officer, writing in his spare time. Kafka was plagued by health problems, including tuberculosis, which ultimately claimed his life at the age of 40.
