What is another word for kafka?
Pronunciation: [kˈafkə] (IPA) 
Kafka is a proper noun that refers to the famous writer Franz Kafka. However, the word 'Kafkaesque' has entered common usage to refer to situations that are nightmarishly complex and bureaucratic. Some alternative words that could be used in place of Kafka or Kafkaesque might include surreal, nonsensical, labyrinthine, or convoluted. These terms all describe situations or experiences that are confusing or difficult to navigate, and they might be used interchangeably with Kafkaesque to describe bureaucratic or administrative nightmares. While these words capture the same sense of confusion as Kafkaesque, they lack the cultural specificity of the original phrase.
