When people discuss the dystopic tendencies

of modern pseudo-democracies,
dictatorships and semi-dictatorships,
and the ominous, continuing ground-swell
of collaboration in the various 'Wars on Terror',
it is never Kafka who is mentioned,
but Orwell.  This is an error.

    How do Kafka and Orwell differ?

    Kafka is much more unspecific, more atmospheric, and, to my mind, both more accurate and more scary.
