The Metamorphosis Review

This is one of the modern classics you'll enjoy. My dad read it when he was in college, but last year, I've read the book before. It was so short and sweet, you can appreciate as a quick read when you're on a break from long sits of reading. It's been a hundred years since it was first published in October 1915. The story was divided into three parts, so it might feel as if it were acts of the play.

When Gregor Samsa, the main character of the story woke up first thing in the morning, he discovered that he had been changed into a monstrous verminous bug. You'll see the obstacles Gregor faces when it comes to being a bug he'd transformed once you read it. It's sad, witty and yes, inspiring to be realistic. Good read, but I had read it aloud for a bit when Dad told me to at one time.
