The Metamorphosis
あらすじ・解説
Written by Franz Kafka and often considered to be his magnum opus, The Metamorphosis tells the story of one young traveling salesman, Gregor Samsa, who inexplicably wakes up as a giant insect. Despite the novella's short length, Franz Kafka manages to provide a deep insight into the human condition, ironically through the eyes of a cockroach.
Though The Metamorphosis can seem depressing at times, the overall message is quite hopeful. The novel keeps its listener enthralled with a good balance of absurdist and realist elements.
The Metamorphosis is so much more than a story about a man turning into a beetle. It is about the reaction of Gregor Samsa's family to the change, plus a clever way of writing about how a family would deal with the main breadwinner in the house becoming unable to work, and, on a wider scope, the way a family reacts to someone who is disabled or terminally ill.
The descriptive writing in The Metamorphosis is excellent, and though it is quite a sad tale, it is also very funny in parts. Though written nearly 100 years ago, The Metamorphosis is amazingly relevant to today's world and remains a great story.
