Answer:
The author develops the theme of shame and guilt through the economic condition of Gregor's family.
Explanation:
Hello. You forgot to say that this question is about "Metamorphosis."
In "Metamorphosis" we are introduced to Gregor Sansa who one day wakes up transformed into a giant insect. Gregor cannot work in this state, as he can barely stand.
Gregor lives with his parents, his sister and his wife and is the only one who works, being the person responsible for the family's economy. However, when Gregor becomes an insect, he is no longer able to supply the family's economic needs, besides needing their constant help. In this scenario, the author develops the theme of shame, since Gregor feels a burden, and develops the theme of guilt, since Gregor feels guilty that the family is in need.
