One morning, Gregor Samsa wakes to find himself transformed into a giant insect. Trapped in his room and unable to work, he listens as his family's initial concern turns to revulsion. Behind his locked door, he crawls the walls while his sister leaves food that grows less edible each day. As Gregor withers in his prison, his family begins to flourish without him. Franz Kafka's "The Metamorphosis" weaves a haunting tale about identity, alienation, and the ruthless nature of family bonds. This surreal masterpiece peels away the facades of normal life to reveal the darkness that lurks beneath ordinary human relationships.
