Czech author of The Castle and The Metamorphosis (5)

I believe the answer is:

kafka

(Other definitions for kafka that I've seen before include ""Metamorphosis" author" , "Male author" , "Czech novelist who wrote in German" , "Former Czech novelist" , "Author of 'The Trial' (1925)" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
