"THE JUDGMENT" MENT"

"The Judgment" was a very interesting read. The main character George, his life seemed confusing to me from the beginning to the end of the story. There was a point in "The Judgment" where I felt like I understood what was going on in George's life. After making every excuse why not to tell his friend about the business and his new engagement.  George had decided to write his friend the truth about what was really going on in his life.  "he decided it would really do no harm to write his friend about everything". I felt like George generally cared about his friends feelings and did not want to shed light on him with his own happiness. It was a tough time for George's friend, his business was failing, he had no social life, or family. Myself and others can relate to this situation, most people don't like to kick people when their down. It made sense that George was indecisive about sharing his good news with his friend. The story became somewhat thrilling when the relationship with George and his father was shown.  Kafka really had me puzzled. I did not know if George was living in a fantasy world, if his father was delusional, or maybe just the both of them were crazy. When George committed suicide I was taken back only because I was unsure about his reason why.  Did he do it because his father drove him crazy? Or was he afraid to face the reality of his life.
