Works
For more details on Franz Kafka bibliography, see Franz Kafka works.All of Kafka's published works, except some letters he wrote in Czech to Milena Jesenská, were written in German. What little was published during his lifetime attracted scant public attention.
Kafka finished none of his full length novels and burned around 90 per cent of his own work, much during the period he lived in Berlin with Diamant who helped him burn the drafts of his work. In his early years as a writer, he was influenced by von Kleist whose work he described in a letter to Bauer as frightening and whom he considered closer than his own family.
