Becoming a Brill Author Publishing Ethics Publishing Guides. Kafka's Novels An Interpretation Series: Internationale Forschungen zur Allgemeinen und Vergleichenden Literaturwissenschaft , Volume: Author: Patrick Bridgwater. Kafka's three novels, to be understood as an ever more intricate portrayal of the inner life of one central character Henry James's 'centre of consciousness' , each reflecting the problems of their self-critical creator, are tantamount to dreams.
The hieroglyphic, pictorial language in which they are written is the symbolic language in which dreams and thoughts on the edge of sleep are visualized. Not for nothing did Kafka define his writing as a matter of fantasizing with whole orchestras of [free] associations. Written in a deliberately enhanced hypnagogic state, these novels embody the alternative logic of dreams, with the emphasis on chains of association and verbal bridges between words and word-complexes.
