On this day in 1922, Franz Kafka began intensive work on his novel THE CASTLE (Das Schloss) at the mountain resort of Spindlermühle, ceasing around early September in mid-sentence.

"There's no quiet place here on earth for our love, not in the village and not anywhere else, so I picture a grave, deep and narrow, in which we embrace as if clamped together, I bury my face against you, yours against me, and no one will ever see us."
—from THE CASTLE (1926)
