Description
Metamorphosis - Franz Kafka
"Metamorphosis" by Franz Kafka begins with the startling transformation of Gregor Samsa, a traveling salesman who awakens to find himself turned into a monstrous vermin. This seminal work of 20th-century fiction dives deep into themes of alienation, disillusionment, and existential angst. As Samsa grapples with his new, bizarre reality, Kafka masterfully explores the absurdities of existence, the alienating effects of modern life, and the harsh realities of authoritarian power. This narrative not only captures the reader's imagination but also profoundly impacts their understanding of the human condition.
