The Metamorphosis by Franz Kafka is one of the most haunting and thought-provoking works of 20th-century literature. The story begins with a shocking and surreal event: Gregor Samsa, a hardworking traveling salesman who supports his family, wakes up one morning to find himself transformed into a gigantic insect. From this extraordinary premise, Kafka builds a deeply human and unsettling tale about alienation, guilt, and the struggle for identity.As Gregor's physical transformation isolates him from the world, his family's attitudes slowly shift. His sister Grete, at first tender and caring, becomes increasingly resentful and distant. His parents, once dependent on his earnings, now view him with fear and shame. Trapped in his small room, Gregor reflects on his past life of sacrifice and duty, realizing that he has lived more as a tool of others' expectations than as an individual with his own desires. The story becomes a powerful metaphor for the loneliness of the modern human condition - the way people can feel trapped by work, family, or society itself.The novella carries strong autobiographical echoes of Kafka's own life. Like Gregor, Kafka felt burdened by responsibility, misunderstood by his family, and suffocated by a rigid social order. His sense of alienation from both the world and himself is vividly expressed through Gregor's grotesque transformation. Yet beneath the absurdity lies a profound emotional truth - one that resonates with anyone who has felt unseen or unloved for who they truly are.The Metamorphosis is not just a story about one man's nightmare; it is a mirror of the modern psyche. Its influence reaches far beyond its era, shaping existential and psychological literature for generations. Kafka's strange, tragic, and deeply human tale continues to challenge and move readers around the world. This translation has been assisted by artificial intelligence.
