La metamorfosis y otros cuentos

The transformation of Gregor Samsa into a monstrous insect, resembling a giant beetle, is one of the landmarks of world literature. In this edition, the best-known work of the brilliant Czech writer, The Metamorphosis, is collected with two other stories, "The Judgment" and "The Stoker," three works that Kafka himself planned to publish together, though this never came to fruition. All three are a testament to Kafka's literary mastery and his impeccable treatment of universal themes: family, identity, the petty bourgeoisie, money, and filial duties.
