The Factory, in its English-language debut, introduces readers to the surreal world of three workers at a vast industrial facility, where their routines gradually blur the boundaries between their tasks and reality. As their days take on a strange, almost dreamlike quality, they begin to question the purpose of their work and their place within the factory and the outside world. With hints of Kafka and unexpected humor, the novel offers a vivid exploration of the absurdity and existential questions associated with modern work life.
