Features: In this book, the land surveyor K walks through thick snow, and the white snow covers his footprints again. Does this suggest that it was a walk that never returned? Because K seems to have stepped into the mystery of fate without an answer. Horace said, "Whatever shore the storm may carry me to, I will land as a master." Kafka then said, "Whatever direction I turn to, there are always black waves hitting me head-on." The sense of loss and failure that permeates the Western literary tradition has affected the long years. How many years have passed, and the storm has brought K here again. K has the right to land, but he cannot gain the identity of a master.
