The Trial by Franz Kafka
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
Reminds me of The Overcoat by Nikolai Gogol, but I liked that one better. While I appreciate the message about how insidious bureaucracy is, and there was something interesting about the dream-like quality of this novel where nothing exactly makes sense and things happen as if the protagonist conjures up the next act. Still, it simultaneously felt meandering, dull, and absurd.
