Kafka archive: National Library of Israel wins legal battle

Eight-year long legal battle resolved by Israel's Supreme Court.


The collection of unpublished Franz Kafka manuscripts had been in the possession of a former secretary of Kafka’s friend Max Brod.

The Supreme Court has called on the National Library of Israel to ensure the archive stays in the country and is made accessible to the public.  The archive will almost certainly be digitised.
