Welcome to the CodeX Cantina where our mission is to get more people talking about books! Franz Kafka is one of the most influential writers to have ever picked up the pen! Let's look at "A Hunger Artist" (sometimes The Hunger Artist) with some modern interpretations of what art is and when it becomes a commodity? When is it no longer art? What does social media have to do with this? Our version was translated by Ian Johnston.
