RomanceMinor Subplot

Ein Buch müsse die Axt sein »für das gefrorene Meer in uns«, forderte Franz Kafka einmal – nur wenige Werke der Weltliteratur kommen diesem Motto so nahe wie der letzte der drei großen Romane des Prager Dichters: Eines Nachts gelangt der Landvermesser K. in ein Dorf, dessen Geschicke von einer geheimnisvollen Macht, dem Schloß, gelenkt werden. Er ersucht dort um eine Anstellung, die ihm jedoch verwehrt wird. Der Grund für diese Ablehnung bleibt ebenso im Dunkeln wie die Natur des ominösen Schlosses und K. beginnt einen aussichtslos scheinenden Kampf um seine Anerkennung.
