The Missing Person, The Trial and The Castle are known throughout the world as great works of modern fiction, admired for the originality of their technique, subtlety of language and multiple suggestiveness. The present study takes power in its social, psychological and moral complexity and follows this thematic thread through the labyrinth of imagery and motif in each novel. The detailed analyses of the novel are preceded by an account of Kafka's life and a survey of critical approaches to his work.

'The reading out of the text instead of reading into it is refreshing and convincing and may seduce experts and curious individuals to take one novel, or even all three Kafka works, into their hands...' - Gerd K. Schneider, Symposium '...provide us with a reading of Kafka which is fresh and interesting, free of jargon, and written in a clear, lucid and elegant style.' - John O. Buffinga, Seminar 'Speirs and Sandberg provide a wealth of subtle and often surprising insights through their close examination of textual details, narative techniques and the complex interrelations among themes and motifs in Kafka's novels...as an advanced introduction, the volume can be recommended strongly to students and anyone seeking a reliable guide through the maze of Kafka's novelistic universe.' - Rolf J. Goebel, Monatsliefte '...as an advanced introduction, the volume can be recommended strongly to students and anyone seeking a reliable guide through the maze of Kafka's novelistic universe.' - Rolf J. Goebel, University of Alabama in Huntsville
