Description
About the Book
Someone must have slandered Josef K., because, without having done anything wrong, he was arrested one morning. Thus begins this masterpiece of literature that was published for the first time in 1925 by Max Brod based on the manuscripts left by Franz Kafka. Josef K., the protagonist, is accused of a crime that he will never know about and finds himself involved in a tangle from which he will not be able to get out. Nobody knows who directs the gears that lead to the arrest and the subsequent process. The situation in which the protagonist finds himself, despite being apparently absurd, seems very plausible to us. In the novel appears lawyers, judges, ushers, and guards who, together, give a shocking image of the mechanisms of the Law and the State. A feeling of guilt will grow in Josef K., which will lead to his submission to the process and which will lead to the unexpected ending of the book...About the Author
Praga, 1883 - Kierling, Austria, 1924. Escritor checo en lengua alemana. Nacido en el seno de una familia de comerciantes judíos, Franz Kafka se formó en un ambiente cultural alemán, y se doctoró en Derecho. Pronto empezó a interesarse por la mística y la religión judías, que ejercieron sobre él una notable influencia. Su obra, que nos ha llegado en contra de su voluntad expresa, pues ordenó a su íntimo amigo y consejero literario Max Brod que, a su muerte, quemara todos sus manuscritos, constituye una de las cumbres de la literatura alemana y se cuenta entre las más influyentes e innovadoras del siglo xx. En 1913, el editor Rowohlt accedió a publicar su primer libro, Meditaciones, que reunía extractos de su diario personal, pequeños fragmentos en prosa de una inquietud espiritual penetrante y un estilo profundamente innovador, a la vez lírico, dramático y melodioso. Sin embargo, el libro pasó desapercibido; los siguientes tampoco obtendrían ningún éxito fuera de un círculo íntimo de amigos y admiradores incondicionales. Entre 1913 y 1919 Franz Kafka escribió El proceso, La metamorfosis y La condena y publicó El fogonero, que incorporaría más adelante a su novela América, En la colonia penitenciaria y el volumen de relatos Un médico rural.Dimensions (Overall): 8.6 Inches (H) x 5.5 Inches (W) x .8 Inches (D)
