The Great Radio Play Edition

To commemorate the 100th anniversary of Franz Kafka's death, DAV is releasing a collection of radio plays based on the author's essential works for the first time. The productions, spanning 70 years of radio play artistry, provide direct access to Kafka's often mysterious texts. The clarity of his language is highlighted, as is the notion that humans are repeatedly confronted with themselves in a seemingly threatening world. A true listening experience – featuring voices like Bruno Ganz, Gert Westphal, and Gustl Halenke.

The comprehensive radio play edition includes:
• The Metamorphosis, NDR 2002
• America, SWF (now SWR) 1957
• The Trial, SDR (now SWR) 1960
• In the Penal Colony, SRF 1981
• The Castle, SWF (now SWR)/RB 1953
• Josephine, the Singer or The Mouse Folk, WDR 1985
