And then the apple in the back is quite the metaphor for betrayal. Gregor Samsa.The worst part was that when Samsa was gone, his family started working, meaning they could have worked and lessened the burden on him but they were too comfortable with his provision. I expected in the end that he would magically be transformed back into a man but Kafka and his obsession with giving the worst possible endings.Okay. Enough yapping. Well done Khairat. This was a really good book review

I'd say most of Kafka's writings also talked about how he viewed his own life. He was a really sad man,which hurts a lot. I don't think I've read any piece of his that didn't break me. The worst was letters to his father,that was when I understood where all the pain came from.

But when talking about books that emphasize so much on human suffering humanity doing what it does best, Metamorphosis is a great one fr. And The trial. I think I should review this soon.

Thank youu. Fellow Kafka lover 😅
