So what does /lit/ think about Franz Kafka?

Just finished The Trial and I am not really sure what to think about it and if I like it or not.

I dont want a solution, I just wanted to know what other people think about it. I am well aware that I have to think about it myself and I also wont take any other impressions or solutions for myself.
I just like to talk about it with other people and /lit/ is a good place for that.
