The Metamorphosis is a story about a man who wakes up transformed into a bug and the repercussions it has on his life and the people around him. What does it all mean? It is most probably an autobiography of how Kafka himself experienced early life living with his parents. Kafka describes how he endured his mother and father's financial and emotional exploitations, to the point of detaching from them and thereby ceasing to be their son (the real metamorphosis).

Metamorphosis is a novella written by Franz Kafka, first published in 1915. One of Kafka's best-known works, Metamorphosis tells the story of salesman Gregor Samsa, who wakes one morning to find himself inexplicably transformed into a huge insect and subsequently struggles to adjust to this new condition.

"Das Schloss" - Kafkas Romanfragment - wurde erst im Jahre 1926, also nach dem Tod des Autoren, veröffentlicht. In typisch kafkaesker Manier wird darin vom Landvermesser K. erzählt, dessen einzige Aufgabe im Leben die zu sein scheint, das Schloss zu erreichen - immerhin wurde er von dort bestellt. Doch dies stellt sich als unüberwindliche Aufgabe dar.

A doomed couple argues over the inevitable. A man weeps when he's finally given the structure he's needed. A stilted voicemail over a date that never happened. With a ballast of wit and reality, William Steffey’s second published work takes on the abstraction of love and does away with frivolity—grounding the listener in snapshots of fulfillment, heartbreak, and reverie. He and She sidesteps the conventional tropes and is privy to the crevices where real love hides.

Lo scrittore Guido Battaglia è un inventore di storie, meglio, di barzellette. In crisi dopo la partenza della collega Valeria, talento prezioso per la stesura d’ogni sua opera, vive smarrito in un’imprecisata città su cui imperversa un bacillo sconosciuto, dando intanto corpo a ricordi e fantasmi. In un’atmosfera sospesa, segnata dal passaggio dei camion del genio militare e delle ambulanze, viene incaricato da due irresistibili ragazze di comporre la storia che salvi non solo la propria, ma tutte le città dall’assedio della “peste nuova”.

The Odradek is an imaginary creature that appears in the short story "The Concerns of a Family Man" by Franz Kafka . The physical description of the Odradek shows it as a flat, star-shaped spool of thread, with the addition of a few other appendages. Later in the story, Kafka gives the Odradek more human characteristics, being able to stand on two legs and speak. The narrator even gets to have a few conversations with the Odradek, during which the creature's nomadic and possibly immortal nature is emphasized.

Due famosi scienziati, Achilles Kunbertus e Stephen Lupus, scampano al naufragio e solo dopo tre anni ritornano al mondo civile. Dove sono stati, che cosa hanno visto nel frattempo? Esistono davvero l'albero nuvola, il mangiaombra, la bancaruga, il leometra, il frotz? Il diario dei due scienziati è un'invenzione fantastica o è la testimonianza reale del più terribile prodigio naturale mai scoperto?

"Al despertar Gregorio Samsa una mañana, tras un sueño intranquilo, se encontró en su cama convertido en un monstruoso insecto." Tal es el abrupto comienzo, que nos sitúa de raíz bajo unas reglas distintas, de La Metamorfosis, sin duda alguna la obra de Franz Kafka que ha alcanzado mayor celebridad. Escrito en 1912 y publicado en 1916, este relato es considerado una de las obras maestras del siglo xx por sus innegables rasgos precursores y el caudal de ideas e interpretaciones que desde siempre ha suscitado.
