Reviews

`This rich and subtle study sets new standards for historical and textual interpretation of Kafka.' Modern Language Review `Anderson's claim for the importance of clothes in Kafka's work is original and persuasive.' Guardian `this book takes a look at Kafka's world from a largely fresh angle.' Independent on Sunday 'It is Kafka's precarious position in this cultural environment that Mark Anderson reconstructs superbly in a well-researched and very readable study. The book is indispensable reading for Kafka scholars and highly recommendable to anyone interested in a renewal of historical criticism and cultural interpretation.' Rolf J. Goebel, University of Alabama in Huntsville, The German Review, Fall 1994, Volume LXIX, Number 4
