This paper will directly use The Disappeared as the main text to be studied, and other works of Kafka such as The Castle as supplementary and background information. Mainly through the perspective of “writing about the city”, it will focus on the description of urban life in The Disappeared, sort out the modern state of human life, and try to summarize Kafka’s insights and answers to the dilemma of transcending modernity. This will provide a new perspective and possibility for the study of Kafka’s works, and fill a part of the academic gap.
