Synopsis

One morning, when Gregor Samsa woke from troubled dreams, he found himself transformed in his bed into a horrible vermin. Thus begins The Metamorphosis, cited as one of the seminal works of fiction of the twentieth century. A story of Gregor Samsa, a travelling salesman, who wakes up one day to discover that he has metamorphosed into a bug, The Metamorphosis is a book that concerns itself with the themes of alienation, disillusionment and existentialism. As Samsa struggles to reconcile his humanity with his transformation, Kafka, very deftly, weaves his readers into a web that deals with the absurdity of existence, the alienating experience of modern life, and the cruelty and incomprehensibility of authoritarian power, leaving them at once stunned and impressed.

A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

Franz Kafka (1883–1924) was a German‑language novelist and short‑story writer born in Prague, whose work has become one of the defining pillars of modern literature. Although he published only a small number of pieces during his lifetime, his posthumously released novels and stories reshaped how we think about bureaucracy, alienation, and the absurdity of modern life. His characters often feel trapped by rules they don’t understand, which is why the word “Kafkaesque” now describes anything bizarre, stressful, or overly complicated.
