What Members Thought
This book was way too confusing and I didn’t enjoy one bit of it.
This book actually made me very angry, especially at the family. I understand that looking after a family member turned beetle would, naturally, be hard, but the way the family treated Gregor was horrible. But overall the book was very good and had many moral lessons within it. I definitely recommend.
It showed how the protagonists optimism slowly died with the patience of his family. It was funny and later broke my heart.
I am still puzzled......
this was a reread for me. i chose to do my final paper for ENGL 215 on queer theory in The Metamorphosis so that is why i read it again. this novella is good when you look deeper into theories and Kafka’s own personal life but on its own i can see how it can be a little boring. so i gave it 3 stars because it’s a good read but not a favorite of mine
