Franz Kafka was Jewish. He had a sister, Ottla,
Jewish. Ottla married a jurist, Josef David, not
Jewish. When the Nuremberg Laws were intro-
duced to Bohemia-Moravia in 1942, quiet Ottla
suggested to Josef David that they divorce. He
at first refused. She spoke about sleep shapes
and property and their two daughters and a
rational approach. She did not mention, be-
cause she did not yet know the word, Ausch-
witz, where she would die in October 1943.
After putting the apartment in order she packed
a rucksack and was given a good shoeshine by
Josef David. He applied a coat of grease. Now
they are waterproof, he said.
