Synopsis "The Metamorphosis.: An Interactive Workbook and Study Guide"

The Metamorphosis is considered to be a "Literary Masterpiece" because it is an awe- inspiring story about a simple guy, who wakes up one morning to find that he has turned into an insect! How cool is that!?! The Metamorphosis Interactive Workbook and Study Guide, by Prima Education Publishing, contains the full text of the original story (our is in English though- the original was written in German). This book does not just simply summarize the text so a student can pass a test (heck- here at Prima Ed. Publishing, we think that tests get in the way of actually appreciating great literature!) Instead, this study guide helps holds the readers hand as they jump right into a fantastic story. This is not a book to be used with care; instead it is a book to dive into! The pages invite the reader to write their notes, draw their own images, and sketch their own thoughts. When finished with this workbook, the reader should feel like they went on a journey and have a genuine connection to the author and to the story. The reader is guided by Pamela Dennen, a certified teacher and author, who has inserted numerous questions and open-ended comments designed to inspire reflection and response. Of course this Socratic Method will help those students who need to memorize random plot events or characters for a test. That, however is a a side benefit of this workbook. The true, and simple, goal is to captivate the student's imagination and inspire a love of learning. ENJOY!

(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.
