À propos de cet audio

Franz Kafka requested of his friend Max Brod, on his deathbed, that all of his unfinished manuscripts be burned. Thankfully, his friend did not comply with this request and unfinished masterpieces like the castle have survived until today.

A man known only as K. arrives in a mysterious town where an all-powerful castle filled with unseen "gentlemen" controls every aspect of life. When the ridiculous bureaucracy of the castle officials makes K.'s original reason for coming to the village, working as a land surveyor, seem impossible, K. must find a way to make a life within a system where the only answer he ever seems to get is "no". K. struggles in vain to get in contact with anyone at all within the castle to help solve his predicament. But still, there may be some tenderness to be found in this absurdist landscape. In this dark satire saturated with absurdist logic, Franz Kafka defines here, the true meaning of the word "Kafkaesque".
