a sickening allegory for mental illness or a gnarly bug who shouldve been around in the late 90s to feature in a bug's life
This one hurt my feelings in so many ways. It’s a short novella yet I found myself upset over this more so than a lot of larger books I’ve read.
The sheer love and affection Gregor had toward his family and sister only for them to be essentially disgusted by him, leaving him to pass alone and in severe pain with depression… incredibly sad.
This book crosses my mind at least once a week.
Kafka is a writing genius.

Buckle up because I’m not gonna shut up over this book. Only kafka could traumatize me and make me sob over a bug
i've been wanting to read this book for a few months now, but i was waiting on finding a good paperback copy of it first. going into the book i had extremely high expectations, and kafka didn't let me down. i personally love the incorporation of the fragility of human life and how it is so possible for things to become different overnight. it also did an amazing at capturing the depth of humans rejecting those that are 'different' to them, even if they are one's family and gregor's representations was so beautifully complex. kafka was a literary genius and it's truly reflected in his works.
