Book Reviews of The Trial
Book Review: The ineffectiveness of one man's struggle to achieve justice
Summary: 5 Stars
A veiled look at Stalinism and the lack of free will in such a society. The utter hopelessness felt by the individual Joseph K, who can find no way to achieve any true justice in a system that is devised to suppress, control and put fear into the populace. A fantastically gloomy look at a very scary world. The pretence of a justice system only adds to the frustration, showing how powerless man is to overcome such repression. One of the best book I have ever read. Read it, you won't be disappointed!
