The Castle - Kafka Franz

The tale of K's arrival in the village below the castle that seems to rule it is Kafka's MAGNUM OPUS. K's isolation and perplexity, his begging for the approval of elusive and anonymous powers, epitomise Kafka's vision of twentieth-century alienation and anxiety. A study of relationships, particularly between the individual and society and between thought and action, THE CASTLE is one of Kafka's most profoundly imaginative works. As fear and worry develop in a series of strangely illogical events and man's quest for freedom heightens, this classic novel confirms Kafka's reputation as one of the greatest creators of visionary fiction this century.
