Description
Josef K. wakes up as and waits for his breakfast to arrive at his door at the usual time; but when it never comes, he tries to ring for Anna, the woman who normally brings his breakfast. When he hears a knock at the door, he opens to face a strange man named Franz. Franz and his colleague order him to stay in his room because he is under arrest for a matter that they cannot speak of. Josef K. will need to be put on trial to determine his innocence. This intriguing read has been translated from German to English and includes a translator's introductory note. Note: the translator's introduction reveals the end of the story, so the reader may want to save it for after the book is read. Content includes some minor curse words and a bit of violence. 276 pgs, pb. ~ Brianna
Publisher's Description of Trial (Breon Mitchell translation)
Written in 1914, The Trial is one of the most important novels of the twentieth century: the terrifying tale of Josef K., a respectable bank officer who is suddenly and inexplicably arrested and must defend himself against a charge about which he can get no information. Whether read as an existential tale, a parable, or a prophecy of the excesses of modern bureaucracy wedded to the madness of totalitarianism, Kafka's nightmare has resonated with chilling truth for generations of readers. This new edition is based upon the work of an international team of experts who have restored the text, the sequence of chapters, and their division to create a version that is as close as possible to the way the author left it.
In his brilliant translation, Breon Mitchell masterfully reproduces the distinctive poetics of Kafka's prose, revealing a novel that is as full of energy and power as it was when it was first written.
