A Hunger-Artist: Four Stories

I‘m left speechless, my first response is the four stories that make this mini collection are sad as they are beautiful in how they each show the human condition.

The four stories are: First Sorrow; Little Women; A Hunger-Artist; and Josefine the singer, or the Mouse People

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.

"first out of the striving for perfection, later out of a habit that had in time become tyrannical..."
