I appreciate critique on bureaucracy and the complex legal system, but I really disliked the way it was executed here. It’s incredibly dense and difficult to engage with, and I think this book could’ve benefited from ‘less is more’. It also didn’t help that I found Joseph K. to be a very irritating character and at certain points I wanted him to just get arrested already so that he would stop talking. I also really disliked how the only purpose the few female characters had were to serve and seduce the men.
I much prefer The Stranger by Albert Camus.
