New Franz Kafka Manuscripts Found

On Tuesday an Israeli judge rejected a request for a gag order on the contents of a box containing manuscripts written by Franz Kafka. Most of the found documents are letters and manuscripts belonging to Kafka and Max Brod, Kafka's close friend and editor. The box also contains a never before seen handwritten manuscript of a Kafka short story. The handwritten manuscript is of great value since Brod edited Kafka's work. There are more safe deposit boxes to be opened; more documents and manuscripts of the two authors are expected to be found.
