"Originallyrecorded in 1967 and newly remastered to enhance your listening experience, this audio set collects four talks on Franz Kafka that Thomas Merton delivered during the month of June. A hugely influential writer from the 20th century, Kafka (1883-1924) was a German-speaking Jew born in Prague. Now, you have the rare opportunity to hear Merton - the English professor-turned-monk and a literary genius in his own right - discuss the novel The Castle as a metaphor for the monastic life."--Container.
