For the third in the Familiars series, David Musgrave has chosen a little-known novella left unfinished by Kafka and concerning a man who comes home to find that two bouncing plastic balls have invaded his home.
The book is illustrated with a series of pencil drawings of curious artefacts and archaeological fragments invented by the artist. The text is set in Walbaum, Kafka's preferred typeface.
