I'm very excited to have found your Kafka project. Yours is the first account I actually feel bad that I'm not currently able to pay. Perhaps that will change in the future, but I appreciate what you're doing. I will be back to read more.
In reference to the specifics, this brings me back to thoughts I've had regarding the salon of Gertrude Stein, the impact of Ezra Pound, and the resurrection of Moby Dick by Raymond Weaver. So often, great literature had a second, quiet genius in the wings, but I've spent my life believing in the myth of the artist alone, his work a singular accomplishment. Such foolishness.
Thank you so much for your kind words and for sharing your thoughts about my Kafka project. It's wonderful to hear that you found it interesting and insightful. Your comment about the salon of Gertrude Stein, Ezra Pound's impact, and Raymond Weaver's resurrection of Moby Dick is quite intriguing. It's funny to think that the Lost Generation writers had the same sort writer/sponsors relationships in Paris as Kafka and Brod had in Prague.
