Boken ger ett intressant perspektiv på hur man kan känna under ett liv vars allt man gör är beroende av ett job. Han är slav till kapitalismens system och blir utbränd. Han känner sig inte som en människa och går djupare och djupare.

Detta är ett intresant perspektiv med många olika tolkningar. Översattarna verkar respektera Kafkas visiob för boken och den läses så.
