Franz Kafka as a traveller and sportsman

Franz Kafka as a traveller and sportsman Tuesday 3 December at 6 pm Franz Kafka's original stories inspire readers all over the world. This year is the 100th anniversary of the death of the famous writer, who is usually presented as someone who was sick and sad. He was said to have enjoyed nothing but writing.In fact, Kafka's life was much more interesting. Journalist JuditaMatyášová and photographer Jan Jindra visited 70 places across Europe where Kafka was on holiday or on business. They found that he was interested in modern technology, was a fan of a healthy lifestyle and liked to play sports. Journalist Judita Matyášová will tell how the detective's search for authentic Kafkaesque places went. The lecture will include excerpts from the new book With Kafka on the Road, which Matyášová and Jindra published this year in the Labyrint publishing house, where they describe more than twenty years of searching for the traces of the famous writer.
