December's Reading: The Metamorphosis (Franz Kafka)




The Metamorphosis ( Die Verwandlung) is a novella by Franz Kafka, first published in 1915. It is one of the main  works of short fiction of the last century. The story begins with a traveling salesman, Gregor Samsa, waking to find himself transformed into a monstrous insect-like creature.

  1. Although it is not actually an English reading, it is going to be interesting to see the style of the English translation.

  4. You know I don't mind reading a non-English book, it's just that this was supposed to be an English Reading Club haha. So I think this month's choice is funny, that's all.
