1988年5月4日,是北大校庆九十周年。整个学校都在狂欢。晚上,我一个人在校园里游荡,碰上高年级的学姐易敏,她和几个作家班的学员在一起,我也跟他们一起去喝咖啡。其中有女诗人伊蕾。我早已听说过她的名字。第一次见到她人,在咖啡厅暗红的光里,我被她的脸震慑住了二十岁了,我还从未见过这样一张被磨损的女人的脸,那脸上有一种被痛苦、被屈辱、被岁月毁坏的无形的痕迹,有一种无意识的、不自觉的痛楚与冶荡。只可惜我当时太小,无法领略那张憔悴的脸上动人的美。相反,坐在她的对面,我替她害羞:她这样堂皇地坐在那里。

The Trial is one of the most important novels of the twentiethcentury: the terrifying tale of Josef K., a respectable bankofficer who is suddenly and inexplicably arrested and must defendhimself against a charge about which he can get no information.Whether read as an existential tale, a parable, or a prophecy ofthe excesses of modern bureaucracy wedded to the madness oftotalitarianism, Kafka's nightmare has resonated with chillingtruth for generations of readers. This new edition is based uponthe work of an international team of experts who have restored thetext, the sequence of chapters, and their division to create aversion that is as close as possible to the way the author left it.In his brilliant translation, Breon Mitchell masterfully reproducesthe distinctive poetics of Kafka's prose, revealing a novel that isas full of energy and power as it was when it was firstwritten.

As the villagers and the Castle officials block his effortsat every turn, K.'s consuming quest-quite possibly a self-imposedone-to penetrate the inaccessible heart of the Castle and take itsmeasure is repeatedly frustrated.
