Description
Step into the unsettling world of Franz Kafka's "The Metamorphosis," a transformative tale that delves into the alienation and absurdity of modern existence. When Gregor Samsa wakes up to find himself transformed into a monstrous insect, his life and relationships with his family take a dark and disturbing turn. As he grapples with his new form, the story explores themes of identity, isolation, and the dehumanizing effects of societal expectations. A seminal work of existentialism and a critique of the human condition, "The Metamorphosis" is a haunting narrative that forces us to confront the fragility of our own humanity and the intricate complexities of the world around us.
