Synopsis "La Transformación (in Spanish)"

In Franz Kafka’s most celebrated novel about the alienation one can feel in everyday life, young traveling salesman Gregor Samsa wakes up one morning to find that he has transformed into a repulsive insect. His parents and sister are terrified, not only of the oversized creature but also of their own fates, because Gregor had been paying off his father’s debt and providing money for them to live off of. They are forced to find jobs, and as they adjust to their new life and transformed cohabitant, their treatment of Gregor varies, from attempting to feed him to running away from him to ignoring him entirely. Written in 1912, The Metamorphosis has remained one of the great works of modern literature due to its unique premise and biting insights into family life. En la novela más célebre de Franz Kafka sobre la alienación que se puede sentir en la vida diaria, el joven viajante de comercio Gregor Samsa despierta una mañana convertido en un repulsivo insecto. Sus padres y su hermana están aterrorizados, no sólo por la criatura de gran tamaño pero también por sus propios destinos, porque Gregor había estado pagando las deudas de su padre y proporcionando dinero para que pudieran vivir. Se ven sin más remedio que encontrar trabajo, y mientras se adaptan a una vida nueva y su transformado conviviente, su tratamiento de Gregor varía, desde tratar de darle de comer hasta huir de él y no hacerle ningún caso. Escrito en 1912, La transformación ha sido uno de los grandes trabajos de la literatura moderna debido a su premisa única y sus mordaces peripecias de la vida familiar.

(Prague, Austro-Hungarian Empire, 1883 - Kierling, Austria, 1924) Bohemian writer in German language. His work, among the most influential in world literature, is a pioneer in the fusion of realistic elements with fantastic ones and focuses mainly on father-son conflicts, anxiety, existentialism, physical and psychological brutality, guilt, the philosophy of the absurd, bureaucracy, and spiritual transformations. He wrote notable novels and a large number of short stories, and also left behind extensive correspondence and autobiographical writings. His unique literary style has often been associated with the artistic philosophy of existentialism and expressionism. His personal relationships also had a significant impact on his writing. The term Kafkaesque is used in Spanish to describe bizarre situations, due to their absurdity and distressing nature.
