"Castle" is one of the most famous works of Franz Kafka and one of the deepest philosophical novels of the twentieth century. He was not completed by the writer and was first published after his death in 1926 by his friend Max Brod. The plot of the "castle" is absurd, but at the same time plausible: land surveyor K. comes to a certain village and tries to get into the castle where they are not allowed. A complex system of bureaucracy is confused in a ball, which is not possible to unravel, which means that there is no way to get into the castle, no matter how roundabouts you go. But the satire on the bureaucratic system is only one of the subtexts of the novel.
All artistic space is limited by the village and inaccessible castle. Time here flows irrationally. “Castle "is primarily a metaphor through which signs of reality are visible. The castle is quite concrete, and at the same time it is a mirage. Maybe the road to Him is the road to God, and the village is just the prototype of our earthly world?
