Book Overview

Franz Kafka wakes up from a nap to discover that he occupies a bed at a homeless shelter called the "Roach Motel," in the year 2015, and no one could be more surprised than he. Computers, television, Smartphones, rock bands, urinals: what can it all mean? Under threat of the madhouse for believing that he is Franz Kafka, he makes his escape into a world and a cast of characters he could hardly have imagined. What will he do with his time now that he is stranded in Richmond, Virginia? What is this new world like in which he finds himself? How will he ever make his way back to 1920? In the end, one thing will prove to be certain: he could never have been prepared for what lay ahead... or who he would become.
