Description:
Praise for Mark Harman's translation ofThe Castle "Semantically accurate to an admirable degree, faithful to Kafka's nuances, responsive to the tempo of his sentences and to the larger music of his paragraph construction. For the general reader or for the student, it will be the translation of preference for some time to come." --J. M. Coetzee,The New York Review of Books "There is a great deal to applaud in Harman's translation. It gives us a much better sense of Kafka's uncompromising and disturbing originality as a prose master than we have heretofore had in English." --Robert Alter,The New Republic "A major and long-awaited event in English language publishing [and] a wonderful piece of news for all Kafka readers, who, for more than half a century, have had to rely on flawed, superannuated editions. Harman is to be commended for his success in capturing the fresh, fluid, almost breathless style of Kafka's original manuscript." --Professor Mark M. Anderson, Department of Germanic Languages, Columbia University From the Hardcover edition.
