I always remember Max Brod when I think of Kafka. Brod saved Kafka's work instead of destroying like he was asked to do by the author:

I'd recommend the Mark Harman copy.

Kindle readers beware: if you click on the Kindle copy for this book, you'll actually get the Anthea Bell version (which is what i already had. apparently this version by Mark Harman is not available on Kindle.)
