Reseña del editor

'No other voice has borne truer witness to the dark of our times. . . THE TRIAL exhibits the classic model of the terror state. It prefigures the furtive sadism, the hysteria which totalitarianism insinuates into private and sexual life, the faceless boredom of the killers. The labyrinth of his meanings opens out, at its secret, difficult exits, to the high roads of modern sensibility, to what is most urgent and relevant in our condition' George Steiner
