"The Trial" is a great book

Anyone read this book by Kafka? I think it is really good. I'd like to discuss it, or you can share your thoughts on it.

10/10 book highly recommend, it's basically about a guy who gets arrested, but even after asking nearly everyone- the police, judge, lawyers,- he is never told why he is arrested. It's very similar to trying to run in a dream when you can't.

My favorite scene was when the main character went to his lawyer's office, and the lawyer was fast asleep on a bed. It was so surreal. Like a dream that makes no sense. And the main character made no question as to why his attorney was taking naps while he went to visit him

This one is even more bizarre. It's like the methamorphosis x 10

Indeed, that's why I liked it so much. I'd describe it as the crippling feeling of trying to escape an invisible and inaccessible evil force (inceldom)
