Franz Kafka

El Castillo Franz Kafka

El final del castillo is tremendously revealing. Kafka died in 1922 of tuberculosis before finishing it. This novel is an infinite and absurd labyrinth that begins when the protagonist arrives one night in a village to fill the position of surveyor. The town is dominated by a castle, which is rather a group of houses where the authority resides and where the laws and regulations that mark the coexistence and life of the neighbors emanate. K.'s stay in the village soon turns into a nightmare.
