pwest10 's review for:

The Metamorphosis by Franz Kafka
4.0
reflective medium-paced

Good read. 

Being able to use such a short, unique story to touch on family dynamics the way it did was incredibly well done. 

It was efficient at making you feel for Gregor. He spent so long working to keep his family afloat, but after turning into a bug, and the family again is left in turmoil, that's when his family decides to work again. instead of getting jobs earlier to help relieve Gregory's stress. 

A family that I didn't care for at all. 

A solid day read to help get through a hangover either way.
