Sinopsis de THE METAMORPHOSIS

One day, Gregor Samsa, a traveling salesman, wakes up to find himself transformed into a giant insect (the most common translation of the German description ungeheures Ungeziefer, literally "monstrous vermin"). He reflects on how dreary life as a traveling salesman is. As he looks at the wall clock, he notices that he has overslept and missed his train for work. He ponders the consequences of this delay. Gregor becomes annoyed at how his boss never accepts excuses or explanations from any of his employees no matter how hard-working they are, displaying an apparent lack of trusting abilities. Gregor's mother knocks on the door, and he answers her. She is concerned for Gregor because he is late for work, which is unorthodox for him. Gregor answers his mother and realizes that his voice has changed, but his answer is short, so his mother does not notice. His sister, Grete, to whom he is very close, then whispers through the door and begs him to open it. He tries to get out of bed but is incapable of moving his body. While trying to move, he finds that his office manager, the chief clerk, has shown up to check on him. He finally rocks his body to the floor and calls out that he will open the door shortly.

1 reseñas sobre el libro THE METAMORPHOSIS

En este cuento me pareció que Kafka se enrolla un poco, podría ser más corto y se haría menos tedioso. A parte de esto me gusta el simbolismo que usa, en torno al cambio de su vida y de la forma de actuar de su familia sobretodo. Primero lo rechazan y no les gusta para nada pero aun así lo defienden ante sus inquilinos. En este libro para mi la metamorfosis simboliza el hecho de dejar de vivir para ti para trabajar solo como hace Gregorio hasta convertirse en otro.

“¿Por qué había sido condenado Gregorio a prestar sus servicios en una empresa en la que al más mínimo descuido se concebía inmediatamente la mayor sospecha?”
