Metamorphosis
Franz Kafka, the author has very nicely narrated the story of Gregou Samsa who wakes up one day to discover that he has metamorphosed into a bug. The book concerns itself with the themes of alienation and existentialism. The author has written many important stories, including The Judgement , and much of his novels Amerika , The Castle , The Hunger Artist . Many of his stories were published during his lifetime but many were not. Over the course of the 1920s and 30s Kafka s works were published and translated instantly becoming landmarks of twentieth-century literature. Ironically, the story ends on an optimistic note, as the family puts itself back together. The style of the book epitomizes Kafka s writing. Kafka very interestingly, used to present an impossible situation, such as a man s transformation into an insect, and develop the story from there with perfect realism and intense attention to detail. The Metamorphosis is an autobiographical piece of writing, and we find that parts of the story reflect Kafka s own life.
