Tagebücher

These diaries cover the period from 1910 to 1923, the year before Kafka's death and reveal the inner world in which he lived. He describes his fear, isolation and frustration, his feelings of guilt and his sense of being an outcast. In between come some quick glimpses of the real world, of the father he worshipped and of the woman he could not bring himself to marry. And throughout this personal journal, Kafka the writer is experimenting, searching for his true mode of expression.
