Book excerpt: Hockaday, a journalist with the BBC World Service, presents Jesenka as much more than Kafka's lover and correspondent, describing her work as a journalist, her association with the literary circles of Prague and Vienna which included Max Brod and Hermann Broch, and her involvement with the underground resistance after Germany's invasion of Czechoslovakia, until her arrest and detention in Ravensbruck concentration camp.
