Georg Kafka, a distant relative of Franz Kafka, was born in 1921 in Teplitz-Schönau (now Teplice, Czech Republic). In 1942 he was interned at Terezin, where he began writing poetry. In 1944 he was deported to Auschwitz, where his mother had been sent as well. He was later transferred to the camp at Schwarzheide, where he was murdered by the Germans at the end of 1944. He wrote the poem “Segen der Nacht” in German in 1943, while at Terezin.
