i got my nephew a collection of kafka short stories when he was 14.
he's had the chance to like different stories, and to like them differently, in the intervening years.
it doesn't always make sense to me to pitch things at age level if you can use the opportunity to introduce something truly cool that is geared toward more sophisticated readers. the pathway to becoming that kind of reader lay through reading.
