gaybug's review against another edition

5.0

la metamorfosis ha sido bastante divertidonga a la vez que reflexiva. me ha gustado mucho, es una lectura súper fácil y rápida y de verdad que me he descojonado con algunas cosas aunque realmente sea una historia bastante triste.
el artista del hambre me ha parecido más bien interesante y como que se centró más en reflexionar que en hacer reír, y la historia del trapecista un poco sin más la verdad. Fue muy cortita y me hizo más gracia que otra cosa.
en general kafka me ha parecido un tipo guay.

*edit
I'm moving this to 5 stars... It's been a month since I read this and I am still stunned, definitely an all time favorite at this point like let's not lie.

Some of these stories resonated with me while some didn't. My favorite aside from Metamorphosis would probably be "In the Penal Colony", "A Hunger Artist", "The Judgement", and short ones like "Children on the Road", "Dresses", and "In the Gallery".

The translation wasn't bad, it just isn't my favorite.
