Franz Kafka
The Trial
Hardcover
(Dead Authors Society July 21, 2016)
In this masterful translation by David Wyllie which is true to the original, the Czech-German writer Franz Kafka (1883 - 1924) shows us why he has had such a profound and lasting influence on literature for over a hundred years. Although much of his work was technically unfinished at the time of his death, he now stands as one of the great novelists of modern fiction. THE TRIAL is Franz Kafka's masterpiece, first published in 1925. Kafka's best-known work, it tells the story of a man arrested and prosecuted by a remote, inaccessible authority, with the nature of his crime revealed neither to him nor to the reader. This brilliant cautionary tale can also be read as a clever indictment of the stupidity and corruption of the legal system and government bureaucracy.
