Der Prozess
by Franz Kafka
Franz Kafka's Der Prozess depicts a man's sudden arrest for an unspecified offense, leading him through a bewildering maze of bureaucratic proceedings and interrogations. As the trial unfolds without clarity or resolution, the narrative exposes the futility of seeking justice in an indifferent, impenetrable system. This seminal work examines alienation, guilt, and the erosion of individual autonomy in the face of faceless authority.
