The Trial by Franz Kafka, hand-bound in genuine leather by LeatheredLines. Published in 1925 after Kafka's death, by his friend Max Brod against Kafka's wishes. One morning Josef K., a respectable bank official, is arrested without being told his crime, and finds himself entangled in an endless, incomprehensible legal process. Its parable Before the Law is one of the most famous passages in modern literature.
About this leather-bound edition
We cover every book in genuine leather by hand, finishing the spine with gold-tone foil titling and decorative tooling in the tradition of fine library bindings. Because each copy is made individually, small variations in leather grain and colour are a natural sign of handwork.
The thickness and weight of the finished book depend on the length of this particular title. Longer works make a noticeably thicker volume, while shorter works are slimmer.
