Letters to Milena
Letters to Milena" by Franz Kafka is a deeply personal collection that reveals not only the intense emotional connection he shared with Milena Jesenská but also the writer's own inner turmoil. Composed between 1920 and 1923, these letters were addressed to Milena, a Czech journalist and translator, who first introduced Kafka's works to Czech readers. Born in 1883 in Prague, Kafka was a German-speaking Jewish author best known for works like The Metamorphosis and The Trial. Meanwhile, Milena (1896–1944) was a spirited writer and journalist, known for her progressive views and bold critique of social injustices.
