Status Updates From El proceso

Ugh, I feel sick, what a depressing closure, another one to my pile of "I had few pleasurable moments reading this, but I can't deny its brilliance" books – I feel a certain kinship to Kafka, although his cynical world building and psychosexual logic makes me nauseous. His portrayal of women varies from silly to creepy (not necessarily bad), but otherwise I get all the systemic hopelessness, I really do.
