jeslis 's review for:
Metamorphosis and Other Stories
by Franz Kafka
tense
slow-paced
Plot or Character Driven:
A mix
Diverse cast of characters:
No
Flaws of characters a main focus:
Yes
Notes:
- Kafka's imagery is extremely vivid and harrowing despite surrounding somewhat mundane settings.
- I feel like Kafka is a good classic to start with and analyse once you know his biographical history — themes of parenthood, fear, horror to do with the mundane world, bureaucracy, etc.
- Some favs from this collection: Metamorphosis, Before The Law, The Coal-Scuttle Rider, Children on the Country Road.
- There were some I didn't really care much about though so final ranking for overall enjoyment.
