The correct answer is :
In The Metamorphosis, Kafka shows us how genres can overlap, making fiction seem like a more versatile form of writing than it might otherwise be. While the story is realistic in its character depictions, it’s based on the surrealistic event of a man changing into an insect. Gregor’s transformation into an insect is also allegorical , since it serves to symbolize the larger themes of the story, such as isolation and alienation.
Answer:
A. The narrator thinks Jasper is foolish.
Explanation:
The best that expresses the narrator's viewpoints towards Jasper is that "the narrator thinks Jasper is foolish".
From the excerpt, it is very clear that the narrator thinks Jasper is foolish. One is termed foolish is if he/she refuses to heed to warning. A foolish person is seen to be unwise and definitely lacks wisdom. Jasper displayed that because he was oblivious of the figure he cut out.
His foolishness is seen in his not making proper enquiries about the whereabouts of Thomas.
Therefore, Option A is the correct answer.
