A philosophical book and you have to read between the lines a lot.
This is the second book I read of Kafka and have cemented my opinion that his books are not for me.
It does have a purpose, a meaning, but you really have to analyse and try to understand what you're reading, which is not where I found it isn't for me, but rather I disliked that the author criticised the legal system with too many words that said nothing and something disguised as nothing. That seemed to take me nowhere.
