Franz Kafka’s The Metamorphosis begins with one of the most shocking openings in literature: traveling salesman Gregor Samsa wakes up to discover he has turned into a giant insect. But this is not just a story of absurd metamorphosis—it is a deeply human tale of alienation, family obligation, and what happens when someone is no longer “useful” to society.
As Gregor’s family struggles to cope with his bizarre condition, Kafka explores powerful themes of dependence, dignity, and the quiet cruelty of social expectations. Both absurd and painfully realistic, this modern classic strikes a unique balance of dark humor and existential insight.
For fans of George Orwell, Albert Camus, and modernist fiction that blurs the line between the strange and the familiar.
