本文旨在探討李昂60年代開始她小說創作之時的五篇作品，嘗試分析這些作品和卡夫卡小說及存在主義哲學之間的關係'為了更清楚釐清這種關係'本文先介紹了卡夫卡三本長篇小說〈蛻變）〈審判）〈城堡）接著簡述了存在主義的核心觀念，最後才比較李昂這些作品和卡夫卡小說及存在哲學之間的異同;並指出李昂之異於二者，可能是出於對三者的誤讀，唯這種誤讀是文本接受過程常見的現象，並不貶損李昂作品的價值。李昂對自己作品是否為模仿之作態度前後矛盾，在我們看來則是矛盾中有統一，因為這些作品有模仿，但也有李昂生活的現實基礎，李昂藝術化地以其想像力和創造力將文本閱讀與現實融為一體，創造了她所理解的卡夫卡式存在主義小說。

This study examines five short stories of LiAng's early creative writings. It points out that these novellas have close relationship with not only Franz Kafka's novels such as The Castle， The Trial， and The Transformation but also the tenets of existentialism. Both Kafka and existentialism have exerted remarkable influence on LiAng's creation of early novelettes，at a time when she was younger than a college student. One question then arises: as a senior high school student， would LiAng be able to comprehend the philosophy of existentialism and Kafka in toto? If not， would it imply that Li'simitation of Kafka and existentialism is a kind of misreading? Questions such as these are what this paper strives to answer.
