Victims'

I was reading Saul Bellow's "The Victim" over the weekend and besides being well written literature, is also provoked some profound thought in me with regard to how and when we consider ourselves a 'victim' of an occurrence, as well as some subliminal self pondering that develops in our Psyche in which we place ourselves in these 'victimised' situations.

As i delved further into my spaced out Saturday afternoon thoughts I took my memory to Kafka's "The trial" and I found many similarities in my thinking then as my thoughts self provoked with "The victim".
