Biographie de Benjamin Balint
Benjamin Balint taught literature, including Kafka, at the Bard College humanities program at Al-Quds University in Jerusalem for the last three years. His first book, Running Commentary, was published by PublicAffairs in 2010. His second book, Jerusalem: City of the Book (co-authored with Merav Mack), was released in 2017. His reviews and essays regularly appear in the Wall Street Journal, Die Zeit, Haaretz, the Weekly Standard, and the Claremont Review of Books.
His translations of Hebrew poetry have appeared in the New Yorker and in Poetry International. His study of Kafka's tangled literary legacy, Kafka's Last Trial, draws on his extensive knowledge of this elusive author, and which country can lay claim to him.
