Description
Gregor Samsa wakes up one morning to find he has been transformed into a giant insect, much to the horror, and eventual revulsion, of his family. This extraordinary tale of imagination was written against the backdrop of increasing turmoil in central Europe and remains an affecting tale and disturbing allegory. It is read here, in a new translation, by Martin Jarvis.

Modello indiscusso per la letteratura dell’assurdo novecentesca, l’angosciante racconto de La metamorfosi può essere letto come metafora dell’abbrutimento in cui riduce il lavoro alienante e logorante, ma anche come allegoria del diverso o della disabilità non capiti e guardati con sospetto e orrore; o ancora come condizione degradante autoindotta in difesa e protezione dal mondo e dai suoi doveri.

The Metamorphosis is one of my favourite short stories, and this is a very fun adaptation (and the art is so goooooood).
