★This is the first graphic bio ever and an all-round portrait of one of the most important writers of all times, Franz Kafka.
★It offers a glimpse of the celebrated author caught in his everyday life, with all his neuroses, his tardiness and his hypochondria, without leaving out his contribution to world literature as a writer, thanks to his deep exploration of the human psyche.

Here he is, Franz. Franz with a boyish face, a reed swaddled in deep blue clothes. Franz the smiler, the neurasthenic, the latecomer, the good friend. Franz the fasting, the hypochondriac and the enemy of medicine. Franz the obsessive who chews a mouthful 100 times. Franz the dreamer and the sinner. Franz the masochist, the indolent perfectionist terrified of completeness. Franz the shape-shifter and his Doubles, misaligned and isolated, passive and parasitic. Franz, eternal and sadistic boyfriend. Franz: the angel and the vampire who, within four walls, seeks the Indestructible in the night. Kafka. Kafka the pettifogger, builder of world-machines, Kafka the golem created by a master father, Kafka the Jew. Franz Kafka, the observer, who writes at night to understand how others live out their days.
