Description
One year before his death Frank Kafka had an extraordinary experience. Having a walk through Steglitz Park, in Berlin, he found a little girl crying heartbroken. She had lost her doll. To calm her down Frank introduced himself as the Dolls's Postman, and told the little girl that the doll was away on a trip but had sent a letter for her that will be delivered by himself the following day. For three weeks Frank focused exclusively on the doll's letters that he handed on every day to the girl. Nobody has ever known who that little girl was and what happened with the letters.
