"Letter to His Father" by Franz Kafka is a literary work that explores the complex and conflicting relationship between the author and his father. Through introspective and emotional prose, Kafka examines the power dynamics, expectations, and emotional wounds that marked his life. This letter, conceived as an attempt at communication and reconciliation, reveals the author's deep inner struggle and his search for identity in the midst of a dominant paternal figure.
Franz Kafka was a German-language Jewish Czech writer and novelist born in Prague, in the Austro-Hungarian Empire. Widely regarded as a major figure of 20th-century literature, his works fuse elements of realism and the fantastique, and typically feature isolated protagonists facing bizarre or surreal predicaments and incomprehensible bureaucratic powers. The term Kafkaesque has entered the lexicon to describe situations like those depicted in his writings. His best-known works include the novella The Metamorphosis (1915) and the novels The Trial (1924) and The Castle (1926). He is also celebrated for his brief fables and aphorisms, which frequently incorporated comedic elements alongside the darker themes of his longer works. His work has widely influenced artists, philosophers, composers, filmmakers, literary historians, religious scholars, and cultural theorists.
