It seems to me that it is the story of the hero that turned down their quest.

challenging

It was so brilliantly written. My favorite line was, “logic is doubtless unshakable, but it cannot withstand a man who wants to go on living” I thought that was such a beautiful line. Also K was probably the most controversial and annoying protagonist ever. He had no respect for women and I was shocked when he described one as pretty. Nevertheless this was beautifully written and Kafka is a genius with the words.
challenging mysterious

As drawn out and infuriating as the trial itself. Though I get that there was method to the style I, like K., felt only exhaustion at the inevitable (and abrupt) conclusion.
