Synopsis

Runaway children who meet up with monsters. A giant talking bug. A secret world of mouse-people. The stories of Franz Kafka are wondrous and nightmarish, miraculous and scary. In My First Kafka, storyteller Matthue Roth and artist Rohan Daniel Eason adapt three Kafka stories into startling, creepy, fun stories for all ages. With My First Kafka, the master storyteller takes his rightful place alongside Maurice Sendak, Edward Gorey, and Lemony Snicket as a literary giant for all ages.

"Matthue Roth reminds us of all the rich, amazing worlds we can share if we follow our own hearts." -- Daphne Gottlieb

"Matthue Roth is the kind of person you move to San Francisco to meet." -- Kirk Read, How I Learned to Snap
