I can't explain why, but these stories just HIT. I wish I could read and understand them in German, I'm sure so much is lost from translation.

Favorites: The Penal Colony, A Country Doctor, The Stoker (wish this could have been a full novel), and The Metamorphosis.
My favorite story was the first and shortest of them all, A Message from the Emperor.
The metamorphosis is one of the best short stories ever written, and a lesson in absurdism.
The goat.
Absurd, mundane, thought-provoking, unexpectedly hilarious at points and hugely entertaining. A well curated selection, particularly liked reading the earlier works in a more traditionally modernist vein and seeing the progression of style and depth.
