Goodreads Review of The Metamorphisis by Franz Kafka

4 stars

I'm not even going to attempt to say anything that hasn't already been said about this book. I enjoyed it. I liked the themes of the book, though I did find the contradictions a bit confusing, like the maid being dismissed except then she wasn't and it was the cook who was instead. I also found it strange that some characters acted in ways that were completely believable, like all of the members of Gregor's family, but the tenants seemed to act in a more surreal fashion. Anyway, was a quick read and a good book as far as classics go.
