- Description
The cartoonist summarises the plot of Kafka's 'The Trial', illiustrated by a caricature of Kafka talking to his lawyer and being overheard by the Clerk of Court, as happens in the novel. The cartoonist addresses his reader directly:'If you haven't read the book, don't worry - under the new spy legislation, you will live 'The Trial' every day of your life'.
Accompanying note from cartoonist states 'So one of the hard-won freedoms of our society is to go. And not with a bang. Cartoon comments on the looming "spy on New Zealanders" legislation. Illustrates a scene from "The Trial", the Kafka novel'.
The Government Communications Security and Related Legislation Bill, which enabled the GCSB to spy on New Zealanders, was passed to become law in July 2013.
