1. Kafka: Three Encounters - Margaret Atwood

Margaret Atwood's first essay on Kafka was written when she was 19 years old not yet a writer herself. Over the years she visited Prague three times, each time looking for traces of the iconic writer, each time finding a different version of him and a changing attitude of his native city to one of its most famous and elusive sons. How did he have such a far-sighted interpretation of the world around him and beyond?

Margaret Atwood is a multi award-winning novelist, poet, essayist and environmental campaigner.
