The Metamorphosis by Franz Kafka Part 1

Hey all! Welcome to Kafkaesque Philosophy.

I am splitting this book into two sessions!

For this session we will be reading the Metamorphosis by Kafka (pages 89 - 105). I will be reading from this copy here: However you can read from any copy you find.

Description of work:

The Metamorphosis is a novella by Franz Kafka about Gregor Samsa, a traveling salesman who wakes up one morning to find he has transformed into a giant insect. The story explores themes of alienation, absurdity, and the dehumanizing effects of modern life as Gregor's family struggles to cope with his new form.

The discussion will remain focused on the text itself, its philosophical themes, symbolism, and interpretation.
Please come having completed the reading beforehand.
