Ai impresia c descoperi o mare nsorit, cu valuri ce sunt niri de lumin i n faa creia trebuie s nchizi, orbit, ochii, pentru a te adposti la umbr.“ (Max Brod) Kafka este cel mai mare scriitor de limb german al timpului nostru. Poei precum Rilke, romancieri precum Mann par fies pleasc n comparaie cu el, fie s radieze o lumin puternic, dar artificial.“ (Vladimir Nabokov) Poate cel mai interesant scriitor al generaiei sale... Un geniu straniu i deconcertant.“ (Edwin Muir) Cu ct opera e mai desvrit, cu att mai puin ne trimite ea spre autorul ei. [...] Franz Kafka este scriitorul care i-a consumat experiena de via n asemenea msur, nct referirea la biografie devine superflu.“ (Martin Walser)
