More about the book
An image of man in the modern world, Joseph K., an ordinary man, is arrested and put on trial for a crime he did not commit. He feels compelled to justify his life at a deep metaphysical level, not simply to rationalize his actions. This is all the more difficult because he cannot communicate with the court that tries him.
