"The Metamorphosis" by Franz Kafka tells the story of Gregor who was changed into an insect and his life living as a bug. But irrespective of his physical appearance, he never complains or questions it. Instead, he remained calm throughout.
Explanation:
In The Metamorphosis, Kafka makes it evident that Gregor endures a hellish existence as <u>a travelling salesman</u>. Being the sole <u>breadwinner/ earner</u> of the family also takes its toll. He yearns to be free of his job and his familial obligations. It seems as though his wish has been granted when he is transformed into an insect. However, Gregor cannot bask in the joy of his freedom because his physical condition causes<u> the loss of his job and also the limitations of his abilities as an insect</u>, and he is forced to live within the confines of his room. Gregor’s condition is also a symbol of his <u>alienation and separation </u>from society, which burdens him with too many expectations and unrealistic goals.
