'It is not necessary to accept everything as true, one must only
accept it as necessary' Rediscover Kafka's classic work of
psychological horror. The Trial is the terrifying tale of Joseph K,
a respectable functionary in a bank, who is suddenly arrested and
must defend his innocence against a charge about which he can get
no information. A nightmare vision of the excesses of modern
bureaucracy wedded to the insanity of twentieth-century
totalitarianism has resonated with readers for generations. WITH AN
INTRODUCTION BY PHILLIPE SANDS
The complete novels of one of the greatest German writers of all
time, collected together in one literary masterpiece. Kafka's
characters are victims of forces beyond their control, estranged
and rootless citizens deceived by authoritarian power. Filled with
claustrophobic description and existential profundity, Kafka has
been compared to a literary Woody Allen. In The Trial Joseph K is
relentlessly hunted for a crime that remains nameless. The Castle
follows K in his ceaseless attempts to enter the castle and to
belong somewhere. In Amerika Karl Rossmann also finds himself
isolated and confused when he is 'packed off to America by his
parents'. Here, ordinary immigrants are also strange, and 'America'
is never quite as real as it seems. THE CLASSIC TRANSLATION BY
