Synopsis "The Metamorphosis (in English)"

The Metamorphosis is a novella by Franz Kafka, first published in 1915. It has been cited as one of the seminal works of fiction of the 20th century and is studied in colleges and universities across the Western world. The story begins with a traveling salesman, Gregor Samsa, waking to find himself transformed (metamorphosed) into a large, monstrous insect-like creature. The cause of Samsa's transformation is never revealed, and Kafka himself never gave an explanation. The rest of Kafka's novella deals with Gregor's attempts to adjust to his new condition as he deals with being burdensome to his parents and sister, who are repulsed by the horrible, verminous creature Gregor has become.

View Author's Page
(Praga, Imperio austrohúngaro, 1883 - Kierling, Austria, 1924) Escritor bohemo en lengua alemana. Su obra, de las más influyentes de la literatura universal, es una de las pioneras en la fusión de elementos realistas con fantásticos y tiene como principales temas los conflictos paternofiliales, la ansiedad, el existencialismo, la brutalidad física y psicológica, la culpa, la filosofía del absurdo, la burocracia y las transformaciones espirituales. Escribió novelas insignes y gran número de relatos cortos, además dejó una abundante correspondencia y escritos autobiográficos. Su peculiar estilo literario ha sido comúnmente asociado con la filosofía artística del existencialismo y el expresionismo. Sus relaciones personales también tuvieron gran impacto en su escritura. El término kafkiano se usa en español para describir situaciones insólitas, por lo absurdas y angustiosas.
