Portada de Metamorphosis de Franz Kafka

"Metamorphosis" by Franz Kafka is a novella published in 1915. It tells the story of Gregor Samsa, a traveling salesman who wakes one morning to find himself inexplicably transformed into a monstrous insect. Trapped in his room and unable to work, Gregor struggles to adjust to his new body while his horrified family grapples with the burden of his existence. As Gregor adapts to his condition, the relationships within his household shift in unexpected and devastating ways. (This is an automatically generated summary.)

right, he always rolled back to where he was. He must have tried it a
hundred times, shut his eyes so that he wouldn’t have to look at the
floundering legs, and only stopped when he began to feel a mild, dull
pain there that he had never felt before.
