| Summary | "The Trial" by Franz Kafka is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story follows Josef K., a seemingly ordinary bank clerk, who is unexpectedly arrested one morning without being informed of the charges against him. This absurd and bewildering event sets off a bizarre and frustrating journey through a nightmarish legal system that is both surreal and deeply disconcerting. At the start of the novel, Josef K. awakens to find that he has been arrested, although the nature of his crime is never disclosed to him. As he grapples with the incomprehensible situation, K. encounters various figures, including two strange policemen, his landlady Mrs. Grubach, and a mysterious supervisor, all while trying to maintain a semblance of normalcy in his life. The opening chapters illustrate K.'s confusion and indignation as he navigates a hostile and illogical world, revealing Kafka's themes of alienation, the absurdity of bureaucracy, and the struggle for justice in a society that seems indifferent to individual plight.
