Undoubtedly, Franz Kafka is one of those very universal writers whose work - both for his excellence and for the enigmas it contains - continues to allow new visions and interpretations, it would be said that in an almost unlimited sense. For his part, Peter Kuper is a graphic artist of a highly varied spectrum, who has created travel diaries, graphic novels, or reinterpreted classics such as Alice in Wonderland with great success. In Kafkiana, Kuper makes an adaptation of fourteen of Kafka's most iconic stories, including "In the Penitentiary" or "An Artist of Hunger." As he explains in the prologue, this time he is inspired by an aesthetic similar to that of engraving artists such as Lynd Ward or Frans Masereel, producing an opaque and suffocating effect, in perfect harmony with Kafka's own writing. As usual in his work, Kuper introduces elements that dialogue directly with contemporary reality, as when in "Before the Law" it is a black man who is denied access to legal protection, or in his interpretation of "The Trees", in which he reflects on the situation of the destitute. In short, Kafkiana is an adaptation of enormous stylistic and literary quality, of great originality and complete topicality.
