The Essential Kafka: The Castle; The Trial; Metamorphosis and Other Stories by Franz Kafka

The Essential Kafka: The Castle; The Trial; Metamorphosis and Other Stories by Franz Kafka


One of the most influential authors of the 20th Century, Kafka presents a world in which people are deprived of spiritual security, and tortured by anxiety and loneliness.
Kafka's characters repeatedly are frustrated in attempts to gain their goals, such as knowledge, social acceptance or salvation.


Their lives are marked by patterns of hope and despair, attempt and failure. They painfully experience their remoteness from a divine authority. This alienation is rooted in personal guilt and at the same time appears as an inescapable destiny.


This book includes The Castle; The Trial; Metamorphosis and Other Stories.
