"They've been saying here's a dangerous predator roaming the wilderness and preying on rivals at will," says law professor Bill Kovacic of George Washington University.

While fighting with his feelings for his father, soaked through with love and hatred, Kafka brought to paper the meditations of a mouse in a cage desperately looking for a way out. The Trial is a brilliant and lucid vision of this search, of a man who desperately searches for freedom against unknown and unknowable constraints, refusing to believe in these constraints and yet forced in the end to submit to them...
