who was Franz Kafka?

Kafka...


...lived between 1883 & 1924 in Prague.

...holds a place as one of the most influential writers, yet he never published when he was alive (he even requested that all his manuscripts be burned if he died).

...longed for independence & adventure yet was born, went to school, lived and worked within the radius of a few kms all his life.

...was vegetarian.

...wrote the best quote ever written:

“My life is a cage in search of a bird”
