I'd recommend reading some of his short stories in order to better acquaint yourself with the 'logic' of his imagination, which would increase your enjoyment of The Trial. Stuff like The Judgment, The Hunger Artist, The Penal Colony, etc.
However, there's no reason you couldn't read The Trial first.

Get the complete stories and then complete the book. Judith butler has some great commentary on him btw

Read Amerika or a collection of his short stories.
