The Castle

So, uh, a situation that feels absurd, oppressive, and nightmarishly bureaucratic, especially when you're trapped in a system whose rules are incomprehensible and whose authorities are unreachable or indifferent.

And this is, uh, from Franz Kafka's, uh, The Trial and The Castle in particular.

Interesting.

But that is where that comes from.

And I want to get closer to this circle, to be among this big voice.

And one night, my brother was a personal bookshelves and I choose a book that was unfortunately or fortunately, The Castle by Franz Kafka.

I could be maybe 12 or 11 years old, and I read the whole book from the beginning of this, and I couldn't understand.

What about this? What is here the story, and what is this castle? Why not go upward? That was absolutely a secret for me.

And I got closer to the center, but I never could understand this castle.

And the castle by Kafka, remained for me until today the most beautiful secret in the literature for me.

That's why I told you that without this castle, I'd never been a writer.

It's such a beautiful idea, discovering this literary secret, unintelligible secret, when you're 12.
