The Kafkaesque itself also is found to create an interrogation. This interrogation is created by Kafka ́s use of the unique device of the Kafkaesque together with handling the Freudian and the Symbolic and the Romantic school as myths, as undertexts. in his major works, that has helped to define Modern Man
