À propos de cet audio

The Trial by Franz Kafka, narrated by award-winning narrator Mike Vendetti, begins like a nightmare - only K is awake, and he is being arrested and indicted on charges he never learns. He is caught up in a legal system that will destroy his life. This is a text that often is used in English classes because it is so deep. Kafka attacks the norms of society, religion, and the legal system. This line is from the next to last chapter: "'No,' said the priest, 'you don't need to accept everything as true, you only have to accept it as necessary.' 'Depressing view,' said K. 'The lie made into the rule of the world could well be taken to mean religion and its effect upon the world.'"

Chapter 9 is completely broken. Lacks audio in several places. Feels awful getting so far into the book only to realize large chunks of it is missing

A tale following K, where he is convicted and under arrest from a legal system that is both everywhere and nowhere but while under arrest he is free to do anything he wants to, travel, or commit crimes as a free man, but never does , everything is important while also being useless. The court never had a trial trial, but rather has proceedings at unknown times to K. K finds people of the court everywhere, from the church to an artist, to fellow bank employees, to inside attics, never finds anyone of seemingly real use to him, the persons he does meet are always always criptic, and always telling him that his trial is going badly. Chapter 8 ends with "this chapter was left unfinished", and there are parts in the recording that go from regular play back speed to X6 times forward, and the listener looses info.

K starts out as a normal smart man, gets arrested by a contradictory at every step court system, seeks out useless people to fight the contradiction court, gets sentenced to death and then dies by court thugs unceremoniously.

Halfway through you think he is going insane but that never turns out, he finds a court proceeding once but it's revealed later that the judge/s are corrupt, obsessed with themselves and are allowed to look at low grade porn while in session, the other people in the court all work for the court and do while also don't are about K's defence

I feel like i have been cheated of 8 hours of listening and a credit

Irritating-pointless-stuffed with contradictions
