Two cult-favorite Japanese artists present eerie graphic adaptations of 9 classic Franz Kafka short stories, with hypnotic illustrations that will appeal to fans of Junji Ito.

These adaptations present absorbing moments for their unique art style to offer vivid entry points into Kafka's world and which take the immersion experience to a whole other level.
