Hopelessly stuck on last clue: "Which author was reduced to tears by a silent Danish film of 1913, Catastrophe at the Dock, about an engineer who goes mad with grief on seeing the collapse of a dock he built - Jame Joyce, Franz Kafka, Marcel Proust or TS Eliot?" Any help appreciated.

(Thanks to Jimbo1234 and Francis Asis for earlier help)

Hi again, Sorry about triple answer - I hit the wrong key! I mean't to add before submitting that I think there is some confusion with the title translation from the original Danish. It is "The Accident On The Dock".

If you Google "accident on the dock" + kafka, and open the cache for Gadfly (you need the highlighting to find the relevant part) you will see his diary reference.
