I am sick and tired of it. Why must they use so diificult words? I am currently reading Lolita in English and half of the words are unknown to me! Wtf? I am getting tired using the doctionary every 19 seconds! What can i do?

All books should have pictures.

I'm a brainlet and the antagonist in my story is an evil mastermind type.
How can I make him believably smart if I'm a fucking idiot?

In The Trial there is literally a direct comparison between the abstruse bureaucracy K. has to endure and the structures internal to the Church.

Even the way in which Kafka presents it to us: it is mysterious, incomprehensible, self-contraddicting, indifferent. It resembles both nature and divinity, it represents a real new, complex mistery in our perception (or at least in Kafka's perception): all of these traits are inherent to bureaucracy, and more in general to the state itself, and his metaphysical, symbolic power that it mantains while towering over us.

In this bureaucratic jungle you see something bigger, more complex, uncomprehensible that moves everything around itself, while being indifferent to your will: it's the state as a superior mind, unapproachable by the single human being (who could, in fact, really grasp at once the complexity that characterizes a entire state?).
