I hate it.
I hate thinking about castles like that. I haven't read that but whenever a book mentions a castle I know it's just some fucking rocks on a hill. Because that's what castles are. It wasn't some great architect who built it. It was some soldiers with whatever they had at the time.

Have you ever been in an actual castle dude? They're insane accomplishments for that time. It wasn't just some soldiers who put up some rocks, it would take a whole town a dozen years or more to raise a castle

There is no castle in Franz Kafka's "The Castle". The "castle" in that book is like a myth that you can approach closer to but never reach (despite lots of people coming FROM the castle to troll you in all sorts of epic ways)

I'm reading that right now and I'm getting that exact vibe.
Gotta say though I agree with Lysias, fuck the lover. The non-lover is so much more chill and comfortable.

It refers to the wretched, so-called castle in the story. It's not an attack on the story itself
