The Trial is one of the great works of the 20th century - an extraordinary vision of one man put on trial by an anonymous authority on an unspecified charge. Kafka evokes all the terrifying reality of his ordeal.

If you could sum up The Trial [Naxos AudioBooks] in three words, what would they be?

a slow, pathological destabilization of a human being. The overall corrupt and inefficient legal process where you could never win seem designed to force people into insanity.

What did you like best about this story?

How Josef K could stay so calm for so long. He seemed to think that he could win and prove his innocence, but all he could see is people under the heel of "system". Made out in so much detail

Have you listened to any of Rupert Degas’s other performances? How does this one compare?

Great

Any additional comments?

Shares some of the characteristics of Jonathan Swift hatred for the legal system and lawyers. Having recently finished a book I really liked the theme. Was also a HUGE fan of 1984 and this felt almost the same. Great book

a dull life brought to insanity

Seemed like a script for Monty Python, but showed the insignificance of the individual versus authority. This bizarre incongruence made the ending all the more shocking.

the futility of it all

A very good story, a classic by Kafka, albeit the narration could be a not dry and monotonous at times.

Great Story, Monotonous performance

I was concerned that the narrator would be too monotonous for what is already a heavy-going book, but he managed to do a good job (although I felt he didn't always keep the different voices going).
I don't know why this edition has an apparently unique translation - I presume rights issues, but it does strike me as rather superfluous if not.

Brilliant

The narrator was very good, comforting voice. It was recommended to me from a couple of sources, so I knew it was about the way we build our own chains and own patterns to imprison ourselves.

I didn't enjoy the futility of it all, that he just wasn't able to escape it, I struggled with him accepting all this weird advise that didn't make sense to him at first until he just believes it all.

I struggle with the idea that I too make my chains as if I have power to change it, non of it is real, yet it all feels so real.

I would not recommend if you like happy endings, or uplifting tales. Good luck.

I didn't enjoy but couldn't stop either
