The Statue of Franz Kafka is an outdoor 2003 sculpture by Jaroslav Róna, installed on Vězeňská street in Prague, Czech Republic. It is based on a scene in Franz Kafka's first novel, Amerika, in which a political candidate is held on the shoulders of a giant man during a campaign rally, and carried through the streets.

Prague, Czech Republic.

Still Life - I never thought of petunias as a cut flower.....

The statue's sculptor is Jaroslav Rona, it was unveiled in 2003. It is the dimensional display of an early Kafka short story. It stands next to the Spanish Synagogue, in Prague's Jewish quarter.

This one is dedicated eventually to the last don, for his amazing "Prague trip" set whom without I must have left unattended my Prague directory; and especially for his Franz Kafka statue, depicting the very same subject.

Dans cette rue naquit Franz Kafka.

Er leidet unter dem Umstand, dass er nie zur Ruhe kommt, weder im Jenseits noch im Diesseits angekommen bzw. geblieben ist.

"Kafka"- caricatura de Andrés Casciani

Vor hundert Jahren, am 3. Juni 1924, starb Franz Kafka. Daran kommt man in diesen Tagen nicht vorbei, wenn man die Zeitung aufschlägt oder im Netz surft ...

Das Buch von Murakami hat übrigens nur indirekt was mit Kafka zu tun. Der Protagonist Kafka Tamura nennt sich u. a. so, weil es ihm gefällt, dass Kafka auf tschechisch "Krähe" heißt. In seiner Fantasie wird er von einem solchen weisen Vogel begleitet, der ihm in kritischen Situationen beisteht.

Ansonsten zieht Murakami in diesem Roman alle Register des Surrealen und der Fantasie, eben typisch Murakami.
