"Metamorphosis" is a novella written by Franz Kafka and published in 1915. It tells the story of salesman Gregor Samsa, who wakes up one morning to find himself transformed into a huge insect and struggles to adjust to his new condition. His family is horrified and keeps him locked in his room, causing him to adapt to his new identity and body. However, his family begins to neglect him, and he dies of starvation before sunrise. The story has been interpreted in various ways, including religious, psychological, and sociological. The opening sentence has been translated in different ways, and the insect is commonly depicted as a cockroach.
