After watching Mission Hill last night with Alex, I realized I wasn't too sure on how to use the term "Kafkaesque"
Kafkaesque- "marked by a senseless, disorienting, often menacing complexity" and "marked by surreal distortion and often a sense of impending danger" -The New Yorker
"The adjective refers to anything suggestive of Kafka, especially his nightmarish type of narration, in which characters lack a clear course of action, the ability to see beyond immediate events, and the possibility of escape"
Now we know when it is appropriate.
