Amerika Framed Book Cover Print

This framed print features a first edition book cover of Kafka's Amerika and is sure to make a statement in any home or office.

Amerika tells the story of the young Karl Rossmann who, after an incident involving a housemaid, is banished by his parents to America. Expected to redeem himself in this magical land of opportunity, young Karl is swept up instead in a whirlwind of dizzying reversals, strange escapades, and picaresque adventures.

Kafka began writing what he had entitled Der Verschollene (The Missing Person) in 1912 and wrote the last completed chapter in 1914. But it wasn’t until 1927, three years after his death, that Max Brod, Kafka’s friend and literary executor, edited the unfinished manuscript and published it as Amerika.

This 12 x 16 inch framed print was printed on archival matte off-white paper and the poster frame is made of rigid MDF with a wood finish and shatter-free thick plexiglass and a sawtooth hanger for easy display.
