Review

"Dear Herr Wolff: Pay no attention to what Werfel tells you. He does not know a word of the story. As soon as I have had a clean copy made, I will of course be glad to send it to you. Sincerely, F. Kafka"

"Dear Dr. Kafka: Mr. Franz Werfel has told me so much about your novella---is it called 'The Bug'?--that I would like to see it, too. Are you willing to send it to me? Yours truly, Kurt Wolff"

First line

When Gregor Samsa woke up one morning from unsettling dreams, he found himself changed in his bed into a monstrous vermin.

Publisher's note

A novel about a man who finds himself transformed into a huge insect, and the effects of this change upon his life.

Franz Kafka's 1915 masterpiece is presented in the acclaimed translation by Stanley Corngold. In "Backgrounds and Contexts," Kafka's letters and diary entries illuminate the creative process behind Gregor Samsa, his family, and their nightmarish ordeal. "Criticism" offers seven major assessments of The Metamorphosis by Iris Bruce, Nina Pelikan Straus, Kevin M. Sweeney, Mark Anderson, Hartmut Binder, Eric Santner, and Stanley Corngold.

Annotation

Kafka's immortal absurdist tale of Gregor Samsa, who wakes up to find he has been transformed into a cockroach.
