Miro Gavran: Kafka’s Friend (Mozaik knjiga, Zagreb, 2011)
By: Ivan Telebar
Max Brod sits in a small, stuffy office in Tel Aviv and goes through a new manuscript that came to his home address a few days ago. The sender is unknown, the only thing he can see is the name of the author under which is the title of the manuscript – Miro Gavran Kafka’s Friend. He has heard of this author, the literature circles talk of him as of the most translated Croatian writer and the only alive European dramatist to whom a whole festival has been dedicated to. He cared little for such epithets, he was more concerned about the text in front of him. He has read it several times and now he was just turning the pages and sometimes stopping on a chapter, searching for something more then black ink on a white paper.
