Meer oor hierdie e-boek
The story deals with a fasting artist who regards fasting as an art. He performs long periods of fasting on stage, drawing the audience's attention, but over time, he becomes increasingly alienated as the public loses interest. While continuing his fasting at a circus, he ultimately dies in neglect. The fasting artist confesses that he could not practice any other art, revealing the agony of an artist and the limits of human existence. The work symbolically portrays the alienation of art and artists, as well as societal indifference. Through this, Kafka explores the absurdity and loneliness of human existence.
Meer oor die skrywer
Franz Kafka (1883-1924) was a Jewish German writer born in Prague, Czech Republic, and is an important figure in modern literature. His works mainly deal with alienation, isolation, and the anxiety and helplessness felt in power structures. Through his unique imagination and depiction of painful human existence, Kafka presents readers with a world where the boundaries between reality and dreams are blurred. The protagonists in his works often show themselves helplessly continuing their lives under the oppression of incomprehensible power or situations, and this Kafka-like world has left a strong impression on many modern readers.
