What a strange and startling little story. Day after day the crowds come to watch the Hunger Artist in his cage. Why do they watch him?

Like Dickens (Dickensian) and Shakespeare (Shakespearean), Kafka truly deserves to have his name transformed into an adjective (Kafkaesque).

Thanks again, @SerialReader , for the opportunity to read this.

Reading a few of the stories in the Kafka collection that @ju.ca.no sent me for #cupidgoespostal! He's marvelous ❤ Happy Saturday!
