The Trial by Franz Kafka is a haunting exploration of bureaucracy, isolation, and the absurdity of modern life. This iconic novel follows Josef K., an ordinary man who is suddenly arrested and thrust into a nightmarish, surreal legal system with no explanation or understanding of the charges against him. As he navigates a maze of impersonal courts and enigmatic figures, The Trial raises deep questions about justice, power, and personal agency. In Kafka's surreal style, the book explores guilt, helplessness, and the dehumanizing forces of authority, leaving readers questioning justice and individual freedom.

It is often safer to be in chains than to be free.”

An icon of twentieth-century literature, Franz Kafka was born on July 3, 1883, into a middle-class, German family in Prague. Never famous in his own lifetime, most of Kafka’s works were published and translated only during the 1920s and 1930s, and almost instantly, they became cult texts of modern literature. The Judgment, The Metamorphosis, and Amerika were all written in 1912 while The Trial, Kafka’s most famous novel, was written in 1914. Kafka died of tuberculosis in 1924.
