In this volume our authors explore the terrors of the mind rather than the horrors of reality, although with their pens the difference makes little difference. We twist this way and that as their talents shape our path towards endings of the nerve-shredding kind.

Als K. in das tief verschneite Dorf kommt, weiß er noch nicht, dass er weder seine Arbeit als Landvermesser wird aufnehmen, noch je Kontakt zu jemand Zuständigem im Schloss wird knüpfen können. Das Schloss mit seinen Unterkastellanen, Kastellanen, Dienern, Beamten und Boten bleibt ein für jedermann ein willkürlich agierendes, undurchdringliches bürokratisches Dickicht, in dem nicht nur K. und seine Liebe zu Frieda, sondern auch alle Dorfbewohner zu ersticken drohen. Während die irrwitzige zwingende innere Logik der Figuren ein präzises und sehr vertrautes Abbild unseres Alltags spiegelt - und damit unentwegt verblüfft.

In this volume we examine the German language. Or rather the authors who wrote in German but are here translated into English. German is most often called the language of philosophers due to its precision and clarity. However, if you’ve studied German, you will know that sentence construction can be difficult to grasp. However, within these stories the language of these great talents express themselves in dazzling prose and searching narratives. And the characters? Clearly the works of genius.

Joseph K., cadre de banque, est arrêté chez lui, un beau matin, sans raison, le jour de son trentième anniversaire. Si on le laisse libre d’aller et venir, il ne cesse de se heurter à des obstacles absurdes, à des êtres étranges, à une réalité qui semble se dérober à mesure qu’il tente de percer le mystère de son " arrestation ". Une justice invisible mais menaçante, qui ne définit jamais la faute qu’il a pu commettre, le cerne de toutes parts.

Ein Forschungsreisender besucht eine Strafkolonie, wo er das dort vorherrschende Rechtssystem begutachten und einer Hinrichtung beiwohnen soll. Den Sträflingen wird ihr Urteil jedoch nicht mündlich verkündet, sondern in einer langwierigen Folterzeremonie von einem eigens dafür entwickelten Apparat qualvoll in den Körper geritzt. Die geplante Hinrichtung verläuft anders als erwartet... Polarisierend, eindrucksvoll und verstörend, ist dieser einzigartige Klassiker nichts für Zartbesaitete.

Aufgeregt debattiert das Mäusefolk über Josefine, die Sängerin, deren Musik sich äußerster Beliebheit erfreut. Doch bei genauerem Hinhören könnte man meinen, dass ihr Gesang nichts weiter als ein gewöhnliches Pfeifen ist... In seiner letzten Erzählung reflektiert Franz Kafka mit ironischem Feinsinn der Stellenwert der Kunst in der Gesellschaft und nicht zuletzt sein eigenes Künstlertum. Hannah Köhler, Charles Wirths und Matthias Ponnier leihen Kafkas Fabel in diesem Hörspiel ihre Stimmen.
