R.I.P. Citizen Kafka.

He was unique, multi-talented, scholarly, inspiring, hilarious, frustrating, and puzzling. I had the priviliege of knowing him on an on-and-off basis for over 20 years.

I’ll be adding more as I have the opportunity. Meanwhile:

Plus – archives of The Secret Museum Of Mankind, Kafka featured top and tail in a story about WFMU by the NY Times, NPR regards Kafka, Kafka on MySpace, Postale Citoyen, a NY Times article on Kafka giving some of it away, and a NY Times article on “the most singular world music show on radio.”

Also: Kafka obit in the UK Independent.

Richie is undoubtedly now searching for an affordable apartment on the Lower East Side of Heaven. May it have many bedrooms, and storage in the basement.

many links glommed from moluv, with thanks.
