Blurb
Wikipedia writes: "...the protagonist known only as K struggles to gain access to the mysterious authorities of a castle who govern the village for unknown reasons. ...Dark and at times surreal, The Castle is often understood to be about alienation, bureaucracy, the seemingly endless frustrations of man's attempts to stand against the system, and the futile and hopeless pursuit of an unobtainable goal."

I have a feeling that Kafka got so fed up living in a bereaucracy, that instead of writing a complaint, he decided to write a whole novel about it.

Misfritz.com informiert Kafka las die Education Sentimental von Flaubert, und die Idee des Nie-ganz-ans-Ziel- Kommens erschien ihm kafkaesk. So wuchs die eher einfache Geschcihte des böhmischen Landvermessers in einem verschneiten Dorf ins Ungeheuerliche. Ein großes Ereignis in der Literaturgeschichte.
