How many writers get their own adjective? The work of this terminally alienated master narrator of the subconscious demanded a new descriptor; I guess they gave up and just settled on "Kafkaesque." But if you ever wonder what the original Kafkaesque work was, take a look here. The book contains all of Kafka's short and longer stories -- everything but his three novels. Most of these stories weren't even published during the author's lifetime.
When Orpheus looked inside, he saw that he was standing in front of a river with fire burning on its surface. There was an old man there with wild, white hair, standing next to a boat.
"Leaf by Niggle" is one of Tolkien’s lesser-known works, a short work which Tolkien noted in a letter to Stanley Unwin “cost me no pains at all” (Letters of JRR Tolkien 98). This was a rarity, because Tolkien notoriously plodded through his writings and revised extensively.
“Leaf by Niggle” introduces us to Niggle, a painter “who had a long journey to make” but “did not want to go, indeed the whole idea was distasteful to him”.
Instead of planning for his journey, he consumed himself with his painting and “a good many odd jobs for his neighbor” which he saw as an annoyance and a waste of time but because “he was kindhearted, in a way” could not turn down.
