The Trial

About this book

"In the end the only thing is to accept the way things are. Above all dont call attention to yourself! Keep your mouth shut however much this goes against your grain! Understand that this great legal system is in a state of delicate balance." 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 start portrait of an authoritarian bureaucracy trampling over the lives of its estranged citizens The Trial is as relevant today as it has ever been.
