«La Metamorfosis» is the short novel by Franz Kafka, published by Alianza in paperback (144 pages, in Spanish).
Gregorio Samsa wakes up one morning transformed into a monstrous insect. His family and those around him reject him because of his appearance and because he is no longer useful to them, and he ends up being treated as a burden. The novel is a parable about alienation, lack of communication and dehumanisation in modern society.
The volume includes the stories «Un artista del hambre» and «Un artista del trapecio» and belongs to the El Libro de Bolsillo collection, Literature series, number 4.
Because of its brevity and its place among the classics of the twentieth century, it is a common reading in classrooms.
