Franz Kafka's letters to his one-time muse, Milena Jesenska - an intimate window into the desires and hopes of the twentieth-century's most prophetic and important writer

Kafka first made the acquaintance of Milena Jesenska in 1920 when she was translating his early short prose into Czech. Their relationship quickly developed into a deep attachment. Such was his feeling for her that Kafka showed her his diaries and, in doing so, laid bare his heart and his conscience.  aDiaries aLetters aJournals 918888  cB  00104070aLBSNAAbLBSNAAd2026-04-20g599.00l1o808.83 KAF p186016q2026-05-28r2026-04-28s2026-04-28w2026-04-20yB0x2  c360761d360761
