Prozess

Prozess

by Franz Kafka

Franz Kafka's *The Trial* is a novel that explores themes of guilt, justice, and the absurdity of human existence. The protagonist, Josef K., is arrested and put on trial for an unspecified crime. He is never informed of the charges against him, and the process itself is bewildering and Kafkaesque. Throughout his ordeal, Josef K. is pursued by a mysterious and powerful force that seems determined to crush him. The novel is characterized by its surrealism and its exploration of the dark side of human nature. *The Trial* is considered one of the most important works of 20th-century literature and is often studied for its psychological insights and its depiction of the alienation and isolation that characterize modern life.
