So far, I find The Trial to be an exciting novel that has captured my curiosity. I
want find out what Joseph K. is being arrested for. I think that he could
either be charged for murder, stealing money from the bank (because he works at
the bank), or treason. I also don’t know how reliable the narrator is; Joseph
K. could be guilty, but we don’t know.
I
find the legal system of the country to also be a bit strange. I have a feeling
that this country’s legal system believes in guilty until proven innocent
because the warden said, “the Law decrees, are drawn towards the guilty”(pg. 6).
Therefore, Joseph might be in some trouble, even if he is truly innocent. However,
the arrest does seem to be very casual, so maybe Joseph’s crime wasn’t that
bad. I also believe that the legal system of this country might be corrupt, so
anything is possible.
I
don’t know how I truly feel about Joseph K., yet. I like his clear-mindedness
and linear thought process, but I do not like his attitude so far. On the other hand, Joseph K. was just arrested
for some unknown crime; his normal attitude is probably different.
I can’t wait to
find out what is going to happen in The
Trail. Is Joseph guilt or innocent? Is Joseph going to be wrongfully convicted?
Honestly, I am falling in love with this book and want to read past page 10 already.
