Kafkaesque: Fourteen Stories

Review\n"A series of riffs and visual improvisations, a diverting, even daring, high-wire act."
― Jules Feiffer\n"Kafka’s work is opaque and ripe for reinterpretation, but it is Kuper’s art that makes it so fresh."
― Tom Tivnan, Times Literary Supplement\n"The Kafkaesque humor is intact, even enhanced."
― Sarah Boxer, Wall Street Journal\n"Stark yet playful interpretations in the woodcut tradition of Käthe Kollwitz, Frans Masereel, and Lynd Ward."
― Boston Globe\n"Kafkaesque has the quality of being not simply an adaptation but an artistic object in its own right."
― John W. W. Zeiser, Los Angeles Review of Books\n"Woe to the reader who tries to skim Peter Kuper’s Kafkaesque.… [Kuper’s] faux woodcuts, with their explosive faces and grim chiaroscuro, cannot be easily digested―a supreme virtue."
― Abraham Riesman, Vulture\nWinner of the 2018 Silver Reuben Award for Graphic Novels
