Kafka's Biography written in three parts in German by Reiner Stach is considered as one of the best Biographies published ever. Renowned translator Shelley Frisch rendered it into English with great dexterity and dedication. In this episode, she spoke about her affinity towards the translation of Biographies, Kafka's Allure, Challenges in translating Non-Fiction and how she handled this 3-part 1800-page work.

Shelley Frisch taught German literature at Bucknell University, Columbia University, and Haverford College, where she chaired the German Department, before turning to translation full-time in the 1990s. Her translations, which include biographies of Friedrich Nietzsche, Albert Einstein, Leonardo da Vinci, Marlene Dietrich/Leni Riefenstahl (dual biography), and Franz Kafka, have been awarded numerous translation prizes. Among her recent translations are a volume of Billy Wilder’s early journalism, an overview of Early German Romanticism, an annotated collection of Kafka’s aphorisms, a Holocaust memoir, and a study of the origins of Critical Theory; she is currently translating a biography of Hannah Arendt. She lives in Princeton, New Jersey.
