ELI5: What does Kafkaesque actually mean and how is it supposed to be used?

We are all probably familiar with this term, but I still have no idea what does it really mean. I've read two books by the author Franz Kafka, the guy who was the origin of this very term. I tried looking online, searching for definitions and stuff, but I still have no idea what was that all about, nobody explained it clearly. I wanted to find a simple definiton with an example, but I found pile of text. Maybe they need all that "extra" stuff to explain it because it is not very simple, I guess. Can it be explained in a few words, if so please do it and if not, I will go through the long version, too. Thank you.

Edit: Thank you, I went through your comments, they were really helpful.

It's used as an adjective to describe something/a situation "having a nightmarishly complex, bizarre, or illogical quality" to the point of being oppressive, like the overall atmosphere of his books. 

We often use it to speak against bureaucracy and administrative procedure that make no sense, but it applies to a lot of things. 

TLDR: Something that makes no sense, in a bad way.
