| | 1. |  | Every Man Dies Alone
from Melville House
Price: $16.07
Customer Review:
It amazes me that this man cranked out this massive work in the dreary, doomed days after WWII in torn and tattered Germany no less--but in 24 days? I am not so sure I can believe that--maybe 124 days but not 24. It would be impossible--plus, this man was besotted by drugs, booze, Godknows what... more info

| | 3. |  | Demian (Perennial Classics)
from Harper Perennial Modern Classics
Price: $3.49
Customer Review:
Indeed a great read! A coming of age story in existential prose and sensibilities. I have made it a point to read at least 3 great novels every year. I'm a nutrition and exercise practitioner functioning within an evolutionary context, so I tend to read literature related to my work---nutrition,... more info

| | 4. | [no image] | Steppenwolf (Henry Holt Classic)
from Henry Holt & Co
Price: $150.79
Customer Review:
Half-way through this short treatise on duality, despair, decay; telling us that we have many people living inside us fighting for control; I relate the description as my experiences so far of 27 years. Enjoying seclusion. Privacy. Free-time to study literature, philosophy, religion and listening to... more info

| | 5. |  | Metamorphosis (Hesperus Modern Voices)
from Hesperus Press
Price: $8.85
Customer Review:
Having never read any Kafka even in my late twenties, a professor of mine pointed out that he'd done a translation if I would be interested, and I was; I wasn't aware how much I was going to enjoy these stories, and the edition they're in is great for a number of reasons, but not without its flaws.... more info

| | 6. |  | Franz Kafka: The Complete Stories
from Schocken Books Inc.
Price: $8.21
Customer Review:
This is the best of the best. Kafka is a lonely reclusive German man who sold insurance and wrote in his spare time. One of the most imaginative writers ever, and certainly one of the most influential. If you like anything written by Charlie Kaufman, he draws a lot of inspiration from Kafka. So do... more info

| | 9. |  | The Magic Mountain
from Knopf
Price: $49.98
Customer Review:
I read this book about ten years ago when I was 21. Mann, Dostoevsky and some other writers of the late 19th and early 20th century posses a singular gift for rendering all that is drab and uninspiring interesting and even original. Mann's keenness as an observer strips the lives of his characters... more info
