Here are a few gift ideas that might appeal to your friend who loves Franz Kafka:
1) A set of Kafka's complete works. You can find a beautifully designed hardcover edition that would look great on any bookshelf.
2) A book about Kafka's life and work, such as "Kafka: The Decisive Years" by Reiner Stach. This biography delves into the writer's personal life and the historical context surrounding his works.
3) A Kafka-themed gift basket. You could include items such as coffee beans (Kafka was famous for his love of coffee), a "Metamorphosis" tote bag, a "Kafkaesque" mug, and maybe even a small potted plant to represent the verdant countryside of Kafka's beloved Bohemia.
4) A decorative print of Kafka's signature on a wooden background, which would make a unique and stylish addition to their home decor.
5) A handmade journal or notebook with Kafka quotes or imagery on the cover, so they can jot down their own musings and ideas inspired by the great writer.
