Written between 1914 and 1915, during one of Franz Kafka’s creative outbursts, The Trial revolves around the struggle of the main protagonist, Josef K., who finds himself suddenly arrested upon waking up one morning. As with much of Kafka’s work, the novel has been subject to much interpretation. In this episode of Czech Books You Must Read, we talk to Oxford University’s Taylor Professor of the German Language and Literature Ritchie Robertson and Professor Ricarda Schmidt from the University of Exeter about those interpretations, as well as the authors that inspired Kafka to write what is considered to be one of the best novels of the 20th century.
