El castillo La búsqueda de una meta inalcanzable

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.

Franz Kafka is considered one of the most influential authors of the 20th century due to his introspective work, understanding of the psychology of his characters, and his settings that combine reality, fantasy, and symbolism. His books include In the Penal Colony, The Trial, and Letter to His Father.
