The book you are about to read is a collection of deep and controversial texts. They all deal with the strange phenomenon called absurdity. Life is not about logics following reasonable ways. It rather has absurd faces – at least our perception tells us that story, and we have no difficulties to follow. Although we struggle: life is absurd? Really? Is there not a divine plan? Isn´t absurdity a sign of the absense of the divine? A sign of the devil? A satanic agenda? This is the reason I put those texts together giving readers an easy access to material other thinkers share with us, for both, experience and perception of the absurd has moved humans at all times. The absurd is indeed an important topic in human´s life experience. There is no real answer on the “why” of absurdity, if we are honest we do not know much about it. But we can read what humans have written and thought. That means listening to the voices of our ancestors: they often suffered from absurdity in life too. And by sharing their experiences in books and written witnesses they hoped their children had a better insight and perception – and finally hope. So go and read and look how your inner feelings and perceptions are affected, how some will get clear and some will fade away. You must give yourself time to “digest” what you have read. Go and read and think for yourself, always! You must find answers for yourself! May your journey lead you to deep joy and peace! Nothing else was my intention publishing this sourcebook. [mehr]

The Trial is a novel written by Franz Kafka. One of Kafka's best-known works, it tells the story of a man arrested and prosecuted by a remote, inaccessible authority, with the nature of his crime revealed to neither him nor the reader. The terrifying tale of Joseph K, a respectable functionary in a bank, who is suddenly arrested and must defend his innocence against a charge about which he can get no information. A nightmare vision of the excesses of modern bureaucracy wedded to the mad agendas of twentieth-century totalitarian regimes. Look at Joseph K., a bank officer living in a country with a constitution. He wakes up one day with strange men in his apartment telling him he's under arrest. Why or for what offense, no one knows. The arresting officers themselves don't know and can't tell him. Even if he's under arrest, however, no one picks him up or locks him in jail. He can still go to his office, work, perform his customary daily chores, and do whatever he wants to do as he awaits his trial. But he is understandably anxious and worried. He is, after all, charged with an unknown but very grave offense. He has a criminal case. He is an accused. He is under arrest. For this problem he consults so many. He gets a lawyer. His uncle comes to his aid. He talks with his lawyer's other client--also charged and under arrest like him. He consults other people, a painter (who is said to know the "Court"), some women, a priest, etc. about his case. But no one can tell him what the charge is and what his sentence will be. The "Examining Magistrate," the "Judges," the "Court," the proceedings/ trial, and even the "Law" itself--they all seem to be unsolvable enigmas. [mehr]

Prag im Herbst 1912. Ein Mann wird von zwei schemenhaften Gestalten in die Moldau gestoßen. Die Mörder verschwinden im Morgennebel. Der junge Kafka ist auf der Suche nach einem Freund, der plötzlich auf seltsame Weise verschwunden ist. Die Spur führt ihn ins legendäre Künstlercafé »Continental«. Dort trifft er auf den Totengräber Bizzlebeck, eine finstere Gestalt, der ihm rätselhafte Fragen stellt. Wenig später identifiziert Kafka die Leiche seines Freundes. Die Polizei geht von einem Selbstmord aus, doch Kafka glaubt nicht daran. Die Spur seines toten Freundes führt ihn zu einem gewissen Dr. Murnau, der im Schloss ein geheimnisvolles Labor betreibt und sogenannte »Gehirnumwandlungen« vornimmt. Kafka entdeckt, dass sein Freund einer im Untergrund arbeitenden Anarchistengruppe angehörte, gegen die die Regierung angeblich seit neuestem mit ganz ungewöhnlichen Mitteln erfolgreich vorgeht. Der teuflische Dr. Murnau scheint dabei eine zentrale Rolle zu spielen. Und Kafka begreift, dass er das nächste Opfer sein soll... Kafka - verfilmt im Jahre 1992 von Steven Soderbergh (Sex, Lügen und Video, Ocean's Eleven) mit Jeremy Irons, Alec Guiness, Theresa Russell und Armin Müller-Stahl - , neu und ungekürzt ins Deutsche übersetzt von Zasu Menil und Christian Dörge.
