Description

Written in 1914 but not published until 1925, a year after Kafka's death, The Trial is the terrifying tale of Josef K., a respectable bank officer who is suddenly and inexplicably arrested and must defend himself against a charge about which he can get no information. Whether read as an existential tale, a parable, or a prophecy of the excesses of modern bureaucracy wedded to the madness of totalitarianism, The Trial has resonated with chilling truth for generations of readers. The complexity of Kafka's work has a lot to do with the environment of his time. It can even be said that no modern author has interpreted many different aspects of his work, such as this Kafka. Biography, Politics, Society, Psychology, Religion and Philosophy.
