Kafka's Forerunner
Literature卡夫卡的先驱
Xu Zhiqiang
"Kafka's Pioneer" is a collection of reviews by Xu Zhiqiang, a literature professor at Zhejiang University. Different from post-reading novel reviews, he understands writing as a sketch, trying to imitate the spirit of the subject, leading us to read, and even encouraging us to read carefully. The author has profound insights, profound knowledge, and exquisite writing skills. He conveys literature to readers through recreation, enjoyment, taste, and even pain. Those complicated, absurd and bizarre 20th century European and American literary works full of symbols and metaphors opened the door to him in his writings. Writers such as Kafka, Borges, Coetzee, Tóibín, Saramago, Ugresic and other writers appeared one by one to talk to us.
