Franz Kafka (1883-1924) was a German author and is considered to be one of the most influential authors of the twentieth century. With works like The Metamorphosis, The Trial, and The Castle, he specialized in diverse themes and archetypes of alienation, physical and psychological brutality, parent-child conflict, and characters who take on terrifying quests.
Nick Sullivan has been narrating audiobooks since 1994 and has been listening to them for even longer. With over four hundred titles in nearly every genre to his name, he has been awarded numerous Earphones, Audie, and SOVAS awards. In addition to narrating, he is the author of three novels and an actor whose body of work spans Broadway, film, and television.
