Mehr zum Buch

Franz Kafka's nightmarish novels and short stories have come to symbolize modern man's anxiety and alienation in a bizarre, hostile, and dehumanized world. This vision is most fully realized in Kafka's masterpiece, "The Metamorphosis," a story that is both harrowing and amusing, and a landmark of modern literature. Bringing together some of Kafka's finest work, this collection demonstrates the richness and variety of the author's artistry. "The Judgment," which Kafka considered to be his decisive breakthrough, and "The Stoker," which became the first chapter of his novel "Amerika, are here included. These two, along with "The Metamorphosis," form a suite of stories Kafka referred to as "The Sons," and they collectively present a devastating portrait of the modern family. Jason Baker is a writer of short stories living in Brooklyn, New York

Was soll man über Kafka schon sagen. Nicht umsonst gibt es ja das Adjektivum „kaskaesk“. Die Verwandlung ist ziemlich irritierend. Warum ist der Typ einfach so eines Tages zum Käfer geworden? Was hat die Familie damit zu tun? Hat er eigentlich noch einen menschlichen Kopf? Fragen über Fragen, und Antworten gibt es nicht.

It's Kafka. A perfectly normal dude wakes up as a giant bug. A short surreal story, it describes what happens, nothing more. So that your mind can fill in the blanks. Definitely recommend.
