El castillo

The novel portrays a seemingly unending process to access authority. I wonder what Kafka was commenting on about society or authority figures.

His constant struggle to understand and navigate the system made me think about how powerless individuals can feel in real bureaucratic situations. Am I the only one who found this both compelling and infuriating?

Kafka’s use of surrealism and unresolved tension adds layers to the story, but I’m curious whether this was deliberate or a product of the writing style. What do others think about the impact of these choices?
