 The Figure in the Castle - New York Times
The history of Kafka studies is one of proprietary sniping among claimants for existentialism, Judaism, antifascism and anti-Communism, between Freudians and anti-Freudians, deconstructionists and anti-deconstructionists, all taking place on ground struck by Brod and by Kafka's early translators into English, the Scots Willa and Edwin Muir.
These debates, while they seem to be as old as the Talmud, are, like terrorist cellphone chatter, boiling away any time we care to tune in: if you don't believe me, visit the letters pages of The New York Review of Books.
The irony is that Kafka may seem to resemble the invisible authorities lurking inside ''The Castle'' or behind the operations of ''The Trial'': impossible to approach without transgression, and without sinking into a mire of petty bureaucratic obstacles.
