This book is a compact study of Kafka's inimitable literary style,
animals, and ecological thought-his nonhuman form-that proceeds
through original close readings of Kafka's oeuvre. With select
engagements of Adorno, Derrida, and the literary heritage from
Romanticism to Dickens that influenced Kafka, Ted Geier discusses
Kafka's literary, "nonhuman" form and the way it unsettles the
notion of a natural and simple existence that society and culture
impose, including the boundaries between human and animal. Through
careful attention to the formal predicaments of Kafka's works and
engaging with Kafka's original legal and social thought in his
novels and short stories, this book renders Kafka's sometimes
impossibly enigmatic work legible at the level of its expression,
bringing surprising shape to his work and redefining what scholars
and readers have understood as the "Kafkaesque".
