Kafka’s Prague context
A multilingual city behind the literary unease
Franz Kafka was born in Prague in 1883 and wrote primarily in German within a city shaped by Czech, German and Jewish cultures. His fiction turns bureaucracy, authority and alienation into unsettling narratives rather than describing a literal supernatural Prague. This quest connects real places from Kafka’s life with literary themes while keeping its own story distinct from his biography. Playable languages: English.
