Gregor’s inability to communicate with others after his transformation into an insect - the theme of <u>isolation</u>
Explanation:
<em>The Metamorphosis </em>is a novel written by Franz Kafka and published in 1915. The novel tells a rather unusual story of Gregor, a salesman who is suddenly transformed into a huge insect. Throughout the novel, Gregor and his family try to adapt to this new situation. Although the circumstances in the story are different from the real life, the themes explored in this piece are familiar to all of us. Gregor is initially happy that he is able to crawl all day and is free from all the responsibilities of a mundane life. However, he cannot communicate with those around him, which makes him rather lonely and isolated. At the end of the story, Gregor's sister wants to get rid of him and abandons him, which is an act of betrayal that only worsens the whole situation.
