Die Verwandlung

A Metamorfose

Neste livro, Kafka traz o sentimento de uma pessoa que um dia simplesmente está desaparecendo e sendo superada. Gregor, um dia simplesmente acorda como um inseto. Inicialmente, as pessoas sentem sua falta, tentam manter a memória dele. Contudo, vai passando e passando. Até que chega o final... Recomendo fortemente a leitura.

The metamorphosis

the metamorphosis shows that blood relationships lack inherent meaning and are merely transactional in a capitalist system. The worth of a human life is valued by how much wealth he can bring in. Therefore it does not take long to become a burden no one wants to look after in the fast-paced system.

“This fine version, with David Cronenberg’s inspired introduction and the new translator’s beguiling afterword, is, I suspect, the most disturbing though the most comforting of all so far; others will follow, but don’t hesitate: this is the transforming text for you.”—Richard Howard Franz Kafka’s 1915 novella of unexplained horror and nightmarish transformation became a worldwide classic and remains a century later one of the most widely read works of fiction in the world. It is the story of traveling salesman Gregor Samsa, who wakes one morning to find himself transformed into a monstrous insect. This hugely influential work inspired George Orwell, Albert Camus, Jorge Louis Borges, and Ray Bradbury, while continuing to unsettle millions of readers. In her new translation of Kafka’s masterpiece, Susan Bernofsky strives to capture both the humor and the humanity in this macabre tale, underscoring the ways in which Gregor Samsa’s grotesque metamorphosis is just the physical manifestation of his longstanding spiritual impoverishment.

Writings by and about Kafka and textual notes accompany his translations of his early twentieth-century work about Gregor Samsa, an ordinary man who wakes up one morning only to discover that he has been transformed into a monstrous insect and must deal with his physical alteration, as well as the alienation from his family.

The Metamorphosis

Karpe Diez

From the comfort of our breakfast table, we glance at our offspring and reassert internally the belief that there is nothing we wouldn`t do for them. And, in front of whatever god we happen to bow to, we swear on our soul that we would give our liFe for our loved ones, if need may be.<br /><br />But what if it where for them to undergo a mysterious and grotesque transformation, say, into another species? It would only affect them physiologically but... would we use the inability to talk to them as a pretext not to attempt to investigate into other possible communication ways? Would we just give up on them on the readily adopted assurance that our loved one is no longer in that shell? <br /><br />What a powerful writing, made me think on and off about how utterly lonely we, actually, are. No matter to what extent we surround ourselves by family and so-called friends, in the end, there is nothing that can overcome the loneliness, deep down. Definitely time to read `Solitude` by Maupassant.

Li esse num momento de transição na minha vida. Mas quais são os momentos fixos? Os das lembranças?

Metamorphosis

Acho simplesmente incrível a forma que Franz Kafka escreve o texto, deixando várias coisas de certa forma dúbias abrindo muita discussão e interpretação sobre o livro. Um livro de certa forma "díficil" em minha opinião, porém não como livros de filosofia e sim como algo díficil de você tentar aceitar o que está acontecendo e tentar criar uma compreensão correta do texto. Contudo, assim como Kafka, acredito que ele termina de forma "insatisfatória"

Luca Justo

La metamorfosis (Die Verwandlung, en su titulo original en aleman) es un relato de Franz Kafka, que narra la historia de Gregorio Samsa, un comerciante de telas que vive con su familia a la que el mantiene con su sueldo, que un buen dia amanece convertido en una criatura no identificada claramente en ningun momento, pero que tiende a ser reconocida como una especie de cucaracha gigante. Breve e intensa, es calificada a veces como "relato existencialista."

Metamorphosis ทำให้เราตั้งคำถามว่า ถ้าวันหนึ่งรูปลักษณ์ของเราเปลี่ยนไปจนกลายเป็นสิ่งที่น่ารังเกียจ แต่จิตใจข้างในยังคงเป็นเรา ความรัก ความหวังดี และความรู้สึกที่มีต่อคนรอบข้างยังเหมือนเดิม แต่คนรอบข้างเรานั้นจะยังมองเราเป็นคนเดิมอยู่ไหม

เมื่อรูปลักษณ์และคุณค่าที่เรามอบให้กับคนอื่นหายไป สิ่งที่เหลืออยู่คือคำถามว่า คนที่บอกว่ารักเรานั้น รัก “เรา” จริงๆ หรือรักเพียงสิ่งที่เราสามารถเป็นให้พวกเขาได้ 

นี้จึงเป็นวรรณกรรมเซอร์เรียลที่หดหู่และเจ็บปวดอีกเรื่องนึงที่แนะนำให้ลองอ่าน

Such of a burden of a story, que libro tan aburrido y tedioso.

Very descriptive and extremely well written. This book does make you think about so many cases where one's value comes solely from their work and is viewed as worthless without it. Just a sprinkle of endless love is what someone needs to live and thrive. The english teachers would certainly love this book considering the hidden meanings behind this novel hahah.
