Beschrijving
In this, his most famous story, Kafka explores the notions of alienation and human loneliness through extraordinary narrative technique and depth of imagination. Gregor Samsa awakens one morning to find himself transformed into a repulsive bug. Trapped inside this hideous form, his mind remains unchanged-until he sees the shocked reaction of those around him. He begins to question the basis of human love and, indeed, the entire purpose of his existence. But this, it seems, is only the beginning of his ordeal.

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).
