Amerika

In this 2014 Conundrum Press graphic novel, Réal Godbout adapts Franz Kafka's unfinished novel Amerika, bringing the absurdist journey of young Karl Rossmann to vivid sequential life. Godbout, serving as both adapter and artist, translates Kafka's fragmented, picaresque tale into a single, standalone comic volume, with translation by Helge Dascher. This work stands as a faithful and visually compelling entry point into Kafka's darkly comic vision of America, rendered by a singular Quebecois cartoonist.
