In one of Kafka’s most famous novels, The Trial, the protagonist Josef K. is suddenly arrested at his home one morning. The officers do not inform Joseph of why he is being arrested, and he is forced through a long, absurd trial in which nothing is really explained or makes much sense. The trial is riddled with corruption and disorderliness, and by the end of the novel, after having meandered through the entire thing, Josef is never told why he was arrested, and yet, he remains guilty of the crime he is charged with.
