The Castle is Kafka's best novel.

Read Metamorphosis, if you like it then read The Trial. Bam, basic bitch guide to Kafka. If you really need more just read the leftovers of his biblio, it ain't that big

I’ve read everything except for some of his short stories and Amerika. The Castle is probably his most challenging work but can also be his most interesting. The Trial is nearly complete and very good. Metamorphosis is good and an easy first Kafka. I love his parables and paradoxes, very short, sometimes a few sentences, they are kind of mysterious but thought inducing. Of his longer stories I really like “A Hunger Artist” and “Josephine, the Mouse Singer.” I feel as if he is saying so much under the surface but it can only be understood on a sort of subconscious plane. Perhaps that is presumptuous of me and there isn’t really anything under the surface, but when I read him I feel as if I’m walking on a frozen lake, and beneath are deep waters full of dark misunderstood truths.
