The Metamorphosis

Frank Kafka’s Few books have ever made such an impact on the literary world as Franz Kafka’s Metamorphosis. The novella tells the story of Gregor Samsa, a traveling salesman who one morning wakes up to find himself transformed into a giant insect. The story follows Gregor’s struggles as he attempts to come to grips with his new form and his family’s attempts to cope with the strange change. The book is seen as a metaphor for the isolation and anxiety that many people feel in. Even though it was published over 100 years ago, the novel remains just as relevant and insightful today.
