A man awakens to find himself transformed into a giant vermin; a performer starves himself to death as a circus attraction; a fiendish engine of capital punishment engraves the letter of the law into the body of the condemned. Such are the nightmare scenarios that emerge in the short stories of Franz Kafka, one of the twentieth century’s most formative, mystifying literary figures. Though immediate in their impact, Kafka’s stories invite endless angles of interpretation, from Freudian psychology and existentialist philosophy to animal studies. This volume presents “The Metamorphosis”—together with several other of Kafka’s best and best-known stories—in a nuanced, clear, and powerful translation by Ian Johnston. The appendices provide philosophical, literary, and cultural context, as well as valuable selections from Kafka’s own letters and drawings.

A classic collection of twentieth century literature, beloved the world over. "The Metamorphosis" revolves around Gregor Samsa, a travelling salesman who is suddenly transformed into a large, insectile creature while asleep one night. He and his family struggle to adapt to this change, with Gregor attempting to hide his visage as much as possible, and his family struggling to make ends meet without his paycheque. The result is a bleak, often absurdist, take on the banality of everyday living. This collection also includes Kafka's "The Great Wall of China," "Investigations of a Dog," "The Burrow," "In the Penal Settlement," and "The Giant Mole."
