Franz Kafka-Hunger Artist, Before the Law

This guys stories are interesting but weird at the same. Like before the law cause he sat in front of a gate his whole life when he could have gone through or actually lived his life and was it just him and the guard or were thier other peoples gates around that they tried to get through.

The hunger artist was messed up cause im pretty sure u only can last 2 weeks max without food not 40 days plus. And why would people come and watch a guy not eat id rather watch a food eating contest. I guess if it gets you fame its a good but idk how you could live a life without food its so good.
