The Metamorphosis is a novel written by Franz Kafka which was first published in 1915. It is the story of a young man, Gregor Samsa, who transformed overnight into a giant beetle-like insect, becomes an object of disgrace to his family, an outsider in his own home, and a quintessentially alienated man. A harrowing -- though absurdly comic -- meditation on human feelings of inadequacy, guilt, and isolation, The Metamorphosis has taken its place as one of the most widely read and influential works of twentieth-century fiction. Born on July 3, 1883, in Prague, capital of what is now the Czech Republic, writer Franz Kafka grew up in an upper middle-class Jewish family. Never famous in his own lifetime, most of Kafka's works were published and translated only during the 1920s and 1930s and almost instantly, they became cult texts of modern literature. His best known works include The Trial, The Castle, The Judgment and The Metamorphosis.

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.
