I have nothing to say about this book that has not been already said, nor can I say it any better. I like Kafka's descriptive style, something I always struggle with while writing.
One thing I strongly felt was that Samsa and his family should have tried to develop a system of communication with each other. The story might have been very different had his family known he understood them. This is no doubt inspired by my recent reading of The Martian, so take this opinion with a grain of salt.
