Kafka: The Eternal Suitor

A wonderful book. A novel derives its hidden strength from its constant commitment to this condition: that the author disappears, allowing Kafka's words to take space, giving the reader a direct image of the writer. Jacqueline Raoul-Dufal's book has succeeded in achieving the miracle of reincarnation. - Le Monde French newspaper. After Phyllis, Julie, Melina, and Dora, it can be said that Jacqueline Raoul-Dufal is the fifth official fiancée of a Prague man. She did not receive any letter from him, but she sent him one of the most beautiful letters he received. Fortunately... and fortunately for us. - Le Canard Enchaîné French newspaper. Jacqueline Raoul-Dufal presents in the form of a novel this study on Kafka's impossible loves, a study in the musical sense of the word: clear, pure, perfectly structured, without any filler or excess details. - Journal du Dimanche French newspaper.
