03.04.2017 I've been reading this chapter and I found myself many times in Kafka's thoughts. He looked at life through a tragically beautiful glass. Also I'm not enjoying the book as much as I could because *sigh* being a translator myself I'm not liking the translation of this book. It either hasn't been checked before printing it or the translator didn't put much thought in it. Still it is a great book.
