Beschrijving
The Metamorphosis ( Die Verwandlung) is a novella written by Franz Kafka which was first published in 1915. One day, Gregor Samsa, a traveling salesman, wakes up to find himself transformed into a giant insect (the most common translation of the German description ungeheuer Ungeziefer, literally "monstrous vermin"). He reflects on how dreary life as a traveling salesman is. Wikipedia

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).
