Chapter 1

Track length6:02
$1.00
$1.30

And now the telephone conversation began.

Track length5:39
$1.00
$1.30

The landlord sat opposite K…

Track length6:12
$1.00
$1.30

K. went on, his eyes fixed on the castle…

Track length5:37
$1.00
$1.30

K.'s mind was elsewhere…

Track length6:03
$1.00
$1.30

K. had probably looked at her…

Track length5:43
$1.00
$1.30

Then, in the cottage to his left…

Track length6:04
$1.00
$1.30

Chapter 2

Track length7:45
$2.00
$2.60

Out of the receiver there came a buzzing sound…

Track length4:10
$1.00
$1.30

The peasants behind him had by now edged up…

Track length6:57
$1.00
$1.30

K. made his choice without any hesitation…

Track length5:12
$1.00
$1.30

Feeling calmer, K. turned to speak to Barnabas.

Track length6:49
$1.00
$1.30

They were walking along, but K. did not know…

Track length6:26
$1.00
$1.30

K. was lost for words.

Track length5:53
$1.00
$1.30

Outwardly the inn was very similar…

Track length5:36
$1.00
$1.30

Chapter 3

Track length4:36
$1.00
$1.30

K. was now alone with Frieda.

Track length4:20
$1.00
$1.30

'I don't know what you're after,' she said…

Track length4:11
$1.00
$1.30

In the silence which suddenly reigned…

Track length4:15
$1.00
$1.30

Hours passed there, hours in which they breathed…

Track length6:23
$1.00
$1.30

Chapter 4

Track length6:44
$1.00
$1.30

Frieda looked up, her eyes full of tears…

Track length5:23
$1.00
$1.30

I was upset to hear that Frieda let you look…

Track length5:32
$1.00
$1.30

'It's absolutely true,' said the landlady…

Track length6:05
$1.00
$1.30

'You see,' the landlady exclaimed…

Track length6:13
$1.00
$1.30

Chapter 5

Track length6:17
$1.00
$1.30

In his innermost being…

Track length6:42
$1.00
$1.30

'The assistants bother you then,' said the mayor…

Track length5:44
$1.00
$1.30

'A long correspondence now ensued…'

Track length5:50
$1.00
$1.30

'You always describe my case as being…'

Track length6:51
$1.00
$1.30

'I'm only suggesting this as a possibility…'

Track length6:41
$1.00
$1.30

'Fair enough,' said K.

Track length7:30
$2.00
$2.60

Chapter 6

Track length5:23
$1.00
$1.30

She drew a photograph out from under the pillow…

Track length5:31
$1.00
$1.30

The landlady found K.'s attempt…

Track length5:53
$1.00
$1.30

'That was not a rash thing to do…'

Track length7:07
$2.00
$2.60

'What did we fail to do?' asked the landlady.

Track length7:34
$2.00
$2.60

Chapter 7

Track length7:16
$2.00
$2.60

When the teacher saw that he had now given…

Track length7:38
$2.00
$2.60

Once he was in the room he hurried…

Track length4:54
$1.00
$1.30

'Yes!' K. exclaimed, laughing and clapping his hands.

Track length3:42
$1.00
$1.30

Chapter 8

Track length6:32
$1.00
$1.30

'The light doesn't have to be on,' said Pepi…

Track length4:49
$1.00
$1.30

K. found it annoying to wait on him in this way…

Track length5:08
$1.00
$1.30

He then turned around again to face the gentleman.

Track length5:56
$1.00
$1.30

Chapter 9

Track length6:12
$1.00
$1.30

'Since we're now all together…'

Track length5:33
$1.00
$1.30

'If you do want to, I'll just draw your attention…'

Track length5:08
$1.00
$1.30

'If that's the way it is madam, said K.…

Track length7:04

Chapter 10

Track length4:38
$1.00
$1.30

'Barnabas,' said K., feeling sad…

Track length4:36
$1.00
$1.30

'Fine,' said K., watching Barnabas…

Track length5:21
$1.00
$1.30

Chapter 11

Track length5:55
$1.00
$1.30

Frieda, who had been listening intently…

Track length3:48
$1.00
$1.30

When K. woke up in the night…

Track length1:29
$1.00
$1.30

Chapter 12

Track length4:32
$1.00
$1.30

Scarcely had he emerged into the room…

Track length5:47
$1.00
$1.30

'I see,' said the teacher. 'You two were lying then?…'

Track length4:53
$1.00
$1.30

Chapter 13

Track length5:23
$1.00
$1.30

Even K., though, no longer had the determination…

Track length5:21
$1.00
$1.30

'Certainly, envoys from Klamm,' said Frieda.

Track length5:39
$1.00
$1.30

After a bit they heard a slight knocking.

Track length6:36
$1.00
$1.30

In the end K. grew tired…

Track length6:18
$1.00
$1.30

K., wanting to put this idea to the test…

Track length6:09
$1.00
$1.30

It was some time since K. had called Hans…

Track length6:20
$1.00
$1.30

It was none too soon for Hans to have gone…

Track length6:06
$1.00
$1.30

And at this point she told K.…

Track length4:46
$1.00
$1.30

'You envisage the discussion with Klamm…'

Track length4:45
$1.00
$1.30

'Then, though, suddenly, I don't know how it happened…'

Track length4:48
$1.00
$1.30

'The key point, Frieda,' said K.…

Track length6:02
$1.00
$1.30

Chapter 14

Track length5:49
$1.00
$1.30

The only surprising thing…

Track length6:19
$1.00
$1.30

If Olga had been here, she would have replied…

Track length5:22
$1.00
$1.30

K., who was slightly annoyed by this…

Track length4:42
$1.00
$1.30

Chapter 15

Track length5:22
$1.00
$1.30

'That's a good observation,' said K.…

Track length6:54
$1.00
$1.30

'We do talk about Klamm sometimes…'

Track length6:15
$1.00
$1.30

'Barnabas has enough time to observe all of this…'

Track length6:31
$1.00
$1.30

'Everything you say to him is right too, though,' said K.…

Track length7:12
$2.00
$2.60

'What's more, I've still been basing all these comments…'

Track length6:24
$1.00
$1.30

'Judge for yourself,' said Olga…

Track length5:31
$1.00
$1.30

'Three years have had that effect on him?' asked K.…

Track length6:43
$1.00
$1.30

'And what was in the letter?' asked K.…

Track length7:24
$2.00
$2.60

'No, Olga,' said K. 'I don't know why…'

Track length6:40
$1.00
$1.30

'Maybe,' said K., 'but for me the main difference…'

Track length6:43
$1.00
$1.30

'You're so scared,' said K.

Track length7:09
$2.00
$2.60

'Finally he did begin to speak…'

Track length7:09
$2.00
$2.60

'I don't want to talk about Sortini,' said Olga.

Track length3:59
$1.00
$1.30

'And at this point, as I've already said…'

Track length4:20
$1.00
$1.30

'And what use were these ideas, anyway…'

Track length7:19
$2.00
$2.60

Father kept at it. He was still very strong…

Track length7:00
$2.00
$2.60

'Just think how far things must have gone with father…'

Track length7:33
$2.00
$2.60

'It was now a question of finding father…'

Track length5:36
$1.00
$1.30

Every day we expect her life to end…

Track length7:13
$2.00
$2.60

'I saw there was a chance like that for Barnabas…'

Track length6:40
$1.00
$1.30

'However fruitless this whole period was…'

Track length6:19
$1.00
$1.30

'If I have spoken disparagingly…'

Track length7:54
$2.00
$2.60

Chapter 16

Track length4:50
$1.00
$1.30

'You're still looking for me as if you were an employee…'

Track length6:28
$1.00
$1.30

'These threats don't frighten me,' said Jeremias.

Track length5:28
$1.00
$1.30

Chapter 17

Track length5:33
$1.00
$1.30

At this point the front door opened…

Track length6:05
$1.00
$1.30

Chapter 18

Track length6:49
$1.00
$1.30

'We won't talk about that any more,' said K.…

Track length7:00
$2.00
$2.60

'That's all sorted out, then,' K. continued.

Track length6:57
$1.00
$1.30

'Come to your senses; pull yourself together…'

Track length7:51
$2.00
$2.60

Now he felt he at least had the strength to face Erlanger.

Track length4:23
$1.00
$1.30

'Where are you intending to go now, then?' asked Burgel.

Track length5:54
$1.00
$1.30

'You seem to have had some disappointments…'

Track length5:36
$1.00
$1.30

'Even they are not really aware of these negative effects…'

Track length6:25
$1.00
$1.30

'However, there is…' said Burgel, looking up pensively…

Track length6:50
$1.00
$1.30

'That's the position. And now, sir, consider…'

Track length4:52
$1.00
$1.30

'And yet we're happy! How suicidal happiness can be!…'

Track length5:43
$1.00
$1.30

Chapter 19

Track length5:08
$1.00
$1.30

And the fact that now, at five o'clock…

Track length4:26
$1.00
$1.30

Only then did the real difficulties begin.

Track length6:41
$1.00
$1.30

And if that did not work…

Track length5:54
$1.00
$1.30

Was the gentleman wanting to call for service…

Track length6:42
$1.00
$1.30

Did he not watch as the files were being distributed?

Track length4:28
$1.00
$1.30

While all this was being put to K.…

Track length6:10
$1.00
$1.30

Chapter 20

Track length5:34
$1.00
$1.30

And at the time Pepi had even had thoughts…

Track length5:45
$1.00
$1.30

'But that's not the worst thing.'

Track length6:10
$1.00
$1.30

'However, he didn't correct it…'

Track length6:08
$1.00
$1.30

'He was nothing at all; it was depressing to contemplate…'

Track length5:25
$1.00
$1.30

Of course, it was not difficult…

Track length6:26
$1.00
$1.30

And then there was the misfortune…

Track length6:22
$1.00
$1.30

K. was totally unaware of what Frieda was doing.

Track length5:54
$1.00
$1.30

'What a wild imagination you have, Pepi,' said K.

Track length5:38
$1.00
$1.30

'One certainly can't lay that charge at Klamm's door…'

Track length7:04
$2.00
$2.60

'They probably won't be at all surprised…'

Track length7:09
$2.00
$2.60

It was a small, overheated room.
