- Title
FRANZ KAFKA Y FEDERICO GARCÍA LORCA: EL DESAPARECIDO POETA EN NUEVA YORK.
- Authors

- Abstract
Both Franz Kafka and Federico Garcia Lorca have been vastly and individually investigated, but not with an academic comparison between their works. For this reason, in this article the converging points between these two European writers will be discussed, with the idea of enriching the literary criticism for both Kafka and Garcia Lorca. It will then proceed to compare the texts by topics: the city, the negative view of New York, grotesque images, the dehumanization as product of the American capitalism, the feeling of strangeness that both writers provoke in the readers, and the perception of art shared by both authors. Once the comparison between América (Kafka) and Poeta en Nueva York (García Lorca) is carried out, and if the particularities of each of these authors are not considered, it is found that their texts share many commonalities. In addition, it is concluded that Kafka and García Lorca were passionate artists about their work, because they found in literary production the satisfaction that the world did not offer them.
