Kafka's Dick

Alan Bennett's comedy about one of the most miserable writers of the 20th century. Franz Kafka and his friend Max Brod, returned from the dead (Kafka metamorphosing from a pet tortoise), find themselves in the suburban home of Sydney, a Kafka fanatic and his less literary minded wife, Linda. Brod spends the entire drama trying to hide the fact that he did not burn Kafka's papers, as promised, but had them all published, thus making his friend one of the world's best-known writers.
