What Gregor becomes — Kafka uses the word Ungeziefer, vermin, something without a proper place in the human order, and refuses to be more specific — matters less than what his transformation reveals. His father, it turns out, has not been as ruined as Gregor had assumed. His sister's devotion has limits. His mother cannot choose. And Gregor himself, lying on his back in a room that was once his and is now his cage, discovers that the self he has lost — the responsible son, the reliable employee, the man whose salary was the household's foundation — was perhaps not a self he had ever been allowed to choose.
Franz Kafka wrote The Metamorphosis in November 1912, in a burst of concentrated work, and published it in 1915. He died in 1924, dissatisfied with almost everything he had produced, and left instructions for his manuscripts to be destroyed. His friend Max Brod preserved them instead, and the literature of the twentieth century was irreversibly shaped by what survived. This novella is where that shape is most visible: a story about a man who becomes useless to the people who needed him, rendered in prose of bureaucratic clarity applied to material of absolute strangeness, in which the horror and the comedy and the grief are not separate registers but the same thing seen from different distances.
One of the most important works of modern literature — and still, more than a century later, one of the most unsettling.
