"Kafka tidak akan pernah bisa menulis seperti dia kalau dia tinggal di rumah. Tulisannya adalah tentang seseorang yang seluruh hidupnya dihabiskan di apartemen, dengan lift, tangga, suara-suara teredam di balik pintu tertutup, dan suara melalui dinding. Tempatkan dia di vila terpisah yang bagus dan dia tidak akan pernah menulis sepatah kata pun."

--- Alan Bennett

Versi Bahasa Inggris

Kafka could never have written as he did had he lived in a house. His writing is that of someone whose whole life was spent in apartments, with lifts, stairwells, muffled voices behind closed doors, and sounds through walls. Put him in a nice detached villa and he'd never have written a word.
