Kafka Açlık Sanatçısı nı ilk olarak 1922 yılında Die neue Rundschau adlı Alman edebiyat dergisinde hikaye olarak yayımladı. Açlık Sanatçısı'nın da içinde olduğu bu grup, Kafka'nın bizzat yayına hazırladığı son hikayeleriydi. Açlık bir sanat olabilir mi? Sanatçının kendini 'sanatçı' hissetmesi ya da 'var olduğunu' düşünmesi tamamen insanların onun sanatına olan ilgileri ile doğru orantılı mıdır?
