Explanation:

Franz Kafka was a famous writer who was born in Austria-Hungary (Czech Republic) by the end of the nineteenth century and became one of the most important writers during the 20th century. In his literary works, Kafka mixes fiction with reality and usually includes themes such as guilt or anxiety related to existence. Additionally, Franz Kafka childhood and life was not easy as his parents were absent and some of his siblings die at a young age; also, the relationship with his father was never good as his father was authoritarian, this and other circumstances in Kafka life made him mainly a reserved man that  was afraid of showing vulnerability or that people thought he was somehow repulsive or inadequate and even it has been claimed by some Kafka personality might have been linked to a schizoid personality disorder that could explain Kafka later depression and isolation. Thus, Kafka feared that people thought he was weak or vulnerable and inadequate physically or mentally.
