A review by tabatha_shipley
The Trial by Franz Kafka
3.0
What I Did Like:
-Terrifying concept of guilt and laws in the tradition of other dystopias. Can you face a trial for a crime you aren’t even aware of?
-The fact that Kafka was able to create that utter feeling of doom and hopelessness from a story is evidence of great writing. You close this book incredibly thankful you are not K.
-Psychological. This one is a thinker, which is fun. You have to focus on what’s happening and try to catch the lessons being tossed at you.
Who Should Read This One:
-Classic lovers. I mean, you have to try them all, right?
-Law students, I would imagine, will draw a lot from this one and enjoy dissecting it.
-Really, anyone with a book club who like to THINK and discuss things that were deeper than they first appeared will enjoy unpacking this one.
My Rating: 3 Stars
-This isn’t one that will be loved by every reader but if you find yourself in the niche you should absolutely give it a try!
