Overview

In Franz Kafka's Metamorphosis, the bounds of reality are destroyed as Gregor Samsa awakens to a strange and unexplainable transformation into a grotesque beast. As he struggles with his new existence, Kafka goes into the depths of the human psyche, exploring the complexities of loneliness, duty, and isolation from society.


This fascinating story questions traditional conceptions of identification and belonging, drawing readers into a bizarre realm where the oddities of life are exposed. Through Kafka's brilliant style, 'Metamorphosis' transcends its narrative boundaries to become a profound investigation of existential anxiety and the underlying absurdity of the human condition. 'Metamorphosis' is a timeless classic that continues to captivate and stir thought, demonstrating Kafka's extraordinary ability to tackle the mysteries of existence with unwavering honesty and clarity.

He died in 1924, before completing any of his full-length novels. At the end of his life, Kafka asked his lifelong friend and literary executor Max Brod to burn all his unpublished work.
