The haunting classic about hope, fear and absurdity - Franz Kafka's The Castle is an expressionistic masterpiece.

An imposing castle looms over a village and no one seems to be allowed inside...not even K., the Land Surveyor whose livelihood depends on getting inside. Though never completed due to Kafka's untimely death, The Castle paints a striking image of absurdity and the nature of existence itself. A crucial piece of 20th century literature, this is a necessary addition to every reader's shelf.

This edition features a new translation by Debra De-Jong, an insightful introduction, and a bold, atmospheric cover design.

ABOUT THE SERIES: The Arcturus Classics series brings together high-quality paperback editions of classics works, presented with contemporary graphic cover designs. Together they make a wonderful collection which is perfect for any home library.
