Kafkaesque (adj.): of, relating to, or suggestive of Franz Kafka or his writings; especially: having a nightmarishly complex, bizarre, or illogical quality. Marked by surreal distortion and often a sense of impending danger.
“An evening, for example, stretched out on the stove. A man is purer than in the morning; the period before falling asleep is really the time when no ghosts haunt one; they are all dispersed; only as the night advances do they return. In the morning they have all assembled again, even if one cannot recognize them; and now, in a healthy person, the daily dispersal of them begins anew.” -- Franz Kafka
