Imagine serving as a park ranger for our U.S. National Parks! If you were a national park ranger, you'd spend every day in one of the most treasured places in America. You'd wear a special uniform, a hat, and a badge—but sometimes you might also need snowshoes or a life jacket. Maybe you'd track the movements of wild animals. You could help scientists make discoveries. You might even be part of a search and rescue team! You'd have an amazing job protecting animals, the environment, and our country's natural and historical heritage, from the wilds of Denali to the Statue of Liberty.

A new translation into American English of Kafka's 1926 "Amerika". This is volume IV in the Complete Works of Kafka by Livraria Press. Max Brod, Kafka's friend and literary executor, published Amerika in 1927, three years after Kafka's death. The novel, Kafka's first and funniest, follows the story of Karl Rossmann, a young man who is sent to America by his parents after an incident involving a housemaid. Hoping to redeem himself in the land of opportunity, Karl instead becomes embroiled in a series of strange and dizzying adventures. Through it all, he struggles to find his footing in this new and unfamiliar world.
