The Making of The Hunter Gracchus
from The New Criterion
Here's a great essay by Guy Davenport (a former Wustl prof) on the Kafka piece. I have always found it interesting that many modern artists get their material from unexpected (sometimes even kitschy) sources - Stravinsky was a lifelong Tchaikovsky fan, Borges admired Kipling, Ashbery is a self confessed addict of cheap paperbacks etc etc.

Link was pointed out to the poster by his apartment mate, a Kafka fanatic.
You should invite your apartment-mate to join in! It's a blog that brings together interesting links with short annotations. Hopefully, a pseudonym and a few posts should be OK by him?
