The Castle

TaschenbuchKartoniert, Paperback
EUR17,00

Beschreibung

The protagonist, known only as K., arrives in a mountain village buried under deep snows in the middle of winter, with the looming, titular, castle above it shrouded in mist.

Attempting to gain contact with the inhabitants of the castle, the officials who run the bureacracy that governs the village, K. repeatedly finds himself misunderstanding and transgressing the multitude of confusing and contradictory rules and regulations that dictate the daily life of the villagers.

Kafka's atmospheric and brooding tale of extreme bureaucracy explores themes of solitude, isolation, loss and companionship.

Autor

Franz Kafka wurde am 3. Juli 1883 als Sohn jüdischer Eltern in Prag geboren. Nach einem Jurastudium, das er 1906 mit der Promotion abschloss, trat Kafka 1908 in die "Arbeiter-Unfall-Versicherungs-Anstalt" ein, deren Beamter er bis zu seiner frühzeitigen Pensionierung im Jahr 1922 blieb. Im Spätsommer 1917 erlitt Franz Kafka einen Blutsturz; es war der Ausbruch der Tuberkulose, an deren Folgen er am 3. Juni 1924, noch nicht 41 Jahre alt, starb.David Zane Mairowitz is an author, playwright, radio director and translator.
