Answer 1

Hello. Unfortunately, you did not submit the excerpt that your question refers to, which makes it impossible for it to be answered. However, when searching for your question, I was able to find another question exactly like yours, which showed the excerpt from "Letter to His Father." This excerpt is in the figure attached below. If that's the case for you, I hope the answer below will help you.

Answer:

The moment when Gregor Sansa transforms into an insect in "The Metamorphosis" and cannot explain himself as he is attacked by his own father, reflects Kafka's personal feelings in the excerpt presented below.

Explanation:

The excerpt from Kafka's letter to his father shows how he felt repressed, unable to express himself and communicate in the presence of his father who attacks him vehemently. This can be seen in "The Metamorphosis" written by Kafka himself, where Gregor Sansa, the protagonist of the story, wakes up transformed into an insect. Gregor becomes something repulsive to his family, something that causes discomfort and becomes useless. This feeling causes Gregor's father to attack him with intensity, but Gregor feels repressed, ashamed and unable to explain his situation, just as Kafka felt towards his own father.
