Aaron asked me why I looked frightened. What was I supposed to tell him? He was my friend, and he had rebuilt his car by himself

. He was so proud of it. He always talked about how the car was over 70 years old, as if that excused all the dents and the problems with the motor. As I looked over at him, I wanted to say, "The problem is that I don’t like barreling down the road in a tin can on wheels," but I wanted to keep the peace, so I said, "I’m not scared. Keep driving!"

The author mean by the figurative phrase "barreling down the road in a tin can on wheels" that the car was very old and that he couldn't trust it. He was afraid that it could break down any time and there can be an accident.

How did kafka’s own life influence the themes he incorporated into “The Metamorphosis”?
cupoosta [38]
Kafka’s own life influences the themes he incorporated into the “The Metamorphosis”. For example he uses his real family relations to write about their distant relationships. He was the oldest of 6 children and didn’t get much attention. Kafka was also know to talk about his distorted and lonely life which he incorporates into the novel as well. The mood of the novel was influenced by Kafka and his father’s relationships.
