I need documented criticism of Franz Kafka's work!!!

[Reverend Maynard]

I have been searching everywhere for literary critism of Franz Kafka's works, mainly on The Metamorphosis. I have a report to present on Thursday so as you can see I am REAL close to coming up screwed. If anyone has ANYTHING please please post away with it. Or if you can send me elsewhere feel free to do that. Thanks much.

If I were you, I'd drink about a gallon of coffee, prepare myself for a long night, and get to a university library as soon as possible.

I've visited several sites. Many of them haven't been updated in a long time and their links pages are next to useless: a lot of broken links to sites long gone. All the sites that still existed didn't seem to have appropriate material. They were linked to each other, however, and I found myself surfing in circles much of the time. It was absurd. Almost Kafkaesque! A bad existential joke!

My advice would be to get to the library and find a sympathetic librarian. Sorry I couldn't be of more help. I'll turn into a dung beetle now and hide under the bed.

P.S. C'mon. Tell me that a one-line report wouldn't get you some points for creativity!

Listen up, you primitive screwheads! See this? This is my BOOMSTICK! Etc. etc.

The way things are going I may well end up giving a 1 line report. And hell, if my teacher asks, I'll just tell him Gurm told me to do it, he'll understand. heh

Gurm,

Hehehe, that's pretty good. My final exam in my Philosophy course was an essay to answer the question "Why?". I sat and thought about it for a few minutes, decided that the Philosophy teacher was clearly out of his mind, and wrote on my paper "Why not?", signed it and handed it in. I got an A.
