The Metamorphosis ( An Original Classic) by Franz Kafka
- ISBN-13 : 978-8182478688
The metamorphosis’ Is a short novel by Franz Kafka, first published in 1915. It is often cited as one of the seminal works of fiction of the 20th century and is widely studied in colleges and universities across the Western world. The story begins with a travelling salesman, Gregor SA MS a, waking to find himself transformed into an insect. “When Gregor SA MS a woke up one morning from unsettling dreams, he found himself changed in his bed into a monstrous vermin.” with this startling, bizarre, yet surprisingly funny first sentence, Franz Kafka begins his masterpiece, ‘the metamorphosis’. It is the story of a young man who, transformed overnight into a giant beetlelike insect, becomes an object of disgrace to his family, an outsider in his own home, a quintessentially alienated man. A harrowing—though absurdly comic—meditation on human feelings of inadequacy, guilt, and isolation, ‘the metamorphosis’ Has taken its place as one of the most widely read and influential works of twentieth-century fiction.
