The Trial

The outer archives are busy

by Chantal Montellier, Franz Kafka, David Zane Mairowitz

About this book

*The Trial*, reinvented in this striking graphic novel, is the bleak tale of Joseph K - arrested one morning for unexplained reasons - struggling against a bewildering judicial process. K finds himself thrown from one disorientating encounter to the next, becoming increasingly desperate to prove his innocence in the face of unknown charges. In its stark portrait of an authoritarian bureaucracy trampling over the lives of its estranged citizens, *The Trial* is as relevant today as it has ever been.
