About this audiobook
Dentro del ambiente crepuscular del circo, él optará por vivir en la cúpula, cerca de la luz. Aquí está solo, separado del mundo y en ocasiones se comunica con la gente que trabaja en el circo.
UN ARTISTA DEL HAMBRE: Un ayunador, para mostrar su arte al mundo, no tiene otra opción que la de hacerse enjaular y ser visto como novedoso animal de circo, instalación o máquina de diversión y solaz que en este cuento adquiere connotaciones carcelarias: el ayunador es custodiado por vigilantes permanentes, en su mayoría carniceros, y por unos vigilantes nocturnos negligentes que se dedican a jugar a las
cartas o a cegarlo con sus linternas.
El circo ostenta un mundo jerarquizado que comienza con el empresario, pasando por la orquesta, médicos, señoritas asistentes, vigilantes y finalmente el exhibido, "el mayor ayunador de todos los tiempos".
Este Audiolibro se completa con otros 2 relatos cortos: "SER INFELIZ" y "LA PRUEBA".
Franz Kafka
Franz Kafka was born to Jewish parents in Bohemia in 1883. Kafka’s father was a luxury goods retailer who worked long hours and as a result never became close with his son. Kafka’s relationship with his father greatly influenced his later writing and directly informed his Brief an den Vater (Letter to His Father). Kafka had a thorough education and was fluent in both German and Czech. As a young man, he was hired to work at an insurance company where he was quickly promoted despite his desire to devote his time to writing rather than insurance. Over the course of his life, Kafka wrote a great number of stories, letters, and essays, but burned the majority of his work before his death and requested that his friend Max Brod burn the rest. Brod, however, did not fulfill this request and published many of the works in the years following Kafka’s death of tuberculosis in 1924. Thus, most of Kafka’s works were published posthumously, and he did not live to see them recognized as some of the most important examples of literature of the twentieth century. Kafka’s works are considered among the most significant pieces of existentialist writing, and he is remembered for his poignant depictions of internal conflicts with alienation and oppression. Some of Kafka’s most famous works include The Metamorphosis, The Trial and The Castle.
