by jaroslav hasek
(http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0140182748/)

>*finished* writing some of his books! <sorry - there are few things
>more irritating than getting 1/2 way through a bound volume of Kafka
>only to find a page that says "that's where he stopped writing - by the
>way - here's an alternative writing of chapter 9, which may actually
>have been meant to be chapter 6 - we're not quite sure - so here's
>the entire book again in a different order" Rrrrrrr!>])
