Gustav Janouch met Franz Kafka, the celebrated author of The Metamorphosis, as a seventeen-year-old fledgling poet. As Francine Prose notes in her wonderful preface, “they fell into the habit of taking long strolls through the city, strolls on which Kafka seems to have said many amazing, incisive, literary, and per- things to his companion and interlocutor, the teenage Boswell of Prague. Crossing a windswept square, apropos of something or other, Kafka tells Janouch, ‘Life is infinitely great and profound as the immensity of the stars above us. One can only look at it through the narrow keyhole of one’s personal experience. But through it one perceives more than one can see. So above all one must keep the keyhole clean.’”
They talk about writing (Kafka’s own, but also that of his favorite writers: Poe, Kleist, and Rimbaud, who “transforms vowels into colors”) as well as technology, film, crime, Darwinism, Chinese philosophy, carpentry, insomnia, street fights, Hindu scripture, art, suicide, and prayer. “Prayer,” Kafka notes, brings “its infinite radiance to bed in the frail little cradle of one’s own existence.”

评分这是一种食粮，人会有段时间亟需他。但很容易的，没去用手抓到这种温存，瞬间就不再需要，变得木屑般无味。你或者便成为最安全不过的物体。可为什么不抓住他呢，如同抽烟，是一种绕弯，是为了让你和自己有了隔阂，体能的搔痒，生的异样证据。而你也需要另一种向隅的考察，音容...
评分在我看来，卡夫卡和我们时代的每个人都一样，在自己的狭小的生活空间当中力图去追寻那些人类生命长河之中的真理和终极。在古代，留存历史总是那些英雄们的特长，在现代，我们无数的人都和卡夫卡一样都可以留存历史，也因此，没有了历史！
评分关于自由： 虚假的，通过外部措施去争取的假自由是一个错误，是混乱，是除了害怕和绝望的苦草外什么都不长的荒漠。这是自然的事，因为凡是具有真正的，耐久的价值的东西，都是来自内心的礼物。人不是从下往上生长，而是从里向外生长。这是一切生命自由的根本条件。这个条件不...
