    'He is my bare minimum': Franz Kafka becomes an unlikely
    HEARTTHROB on TikTok - where Gen Zers are swooning over
    the Czech novelist nearly 100 YEARS after his death

    Kafka, who is best known for his novella 'The Metamorphosis,'
    died in 1924

    Young fans are gushing about his handsome looks and prose
    on TikTok

    The hashtag #kafka now has more than 139 million views on
    the platform

    Kafka was quite weird, almost nuts - which explains why
    Gen-Z seems to gravitate towards him.

    Now let's see if they re-discover Nietzsche.

    I really really WISH they'd re-discover Orwell - it'd
    give 'em a LOT of perspective on 'Woke-ism', its
    methods and aims and such ...........
