Synopsis "El castillo (in Spanish)"

El punto de partida que dispara toda la acción es sencillo: Joseph K. ha llegado a un pueblo para ejercer de agrimensor. Ha sido llamado para prestar sus servicios. No obstante, antes de ponerse manos a la obra, necesita aclarar algunas cuestiones con las autoridades de un castillo que señorea los dominios del pueblo y obtener su beneplácito. Lo que sigue es un peregrinaje infinito de Joseph K. por las calles de este pueblo con el objetivo de acceder a las autoridades del castillo y poder cumplir así con su cometido.

(Prague, Austro-Hungarian Empire, 1883 - Kierling, Austria, 1924) Bohemian writer in German language. His work, among the most influential in world literature, is a pioneer in the fusion of realistic elements with fantastic ones and focuses mainly on father-son conflicts, anxiety, existentialism, physical and psychological brutality, guilt, the philosophy of the absurd, bureaucracy, and spiritual transformations. He wrote notable novels and a large number of short stories, and also left behind extensive correspondence and autobiographical writings. His unique literary style has often been associated with the artistic philosophy of existentialism and expressionism. His personal relationships also had a significant impact on his writing. The term Kafkaesque is used in Spanish to describe bizarre situations, due to their absurdity and distressing nature.
