## Description

Kafka's gripping work of psychological horror. A terrifying psychological trip into the life of one Joseph K, an ordinary man who wakes up one day to find himself accused of a crime he did not commit, a crime whose nature is never revealed to him. Once arrested, he is released but must report to court on a regular basis, an event that proves maddening, as nothing is ever resolved. As he grows more uncertain of his fate, his personal life, including work at a bank and his relations with his landlady and a young woman who lives next door, becomes increasingly unpredictable. As Joseph tries to gain control, he succeeds only in accelerating his own excruciating downward spiral.

Review: Good book to read - My son is a book over to read and I encourage it. He been researching books and this was one that was on his list.
Review: The ramblings make the story - Kafka goes off on tangents throughout the book which makes the story readable.In fact that is the essence of the book. I loved the way the women and seemingly random people get woven into it showing how the legal system is so corrupt and how K tries to get these seemingly superfluous characters to help him rather than going the traditional route The ending was a surprise to me
