The correct answer is C. As it is known, Kafka did not have a good relationship with his father, as he was abusive with him. Kafka’s father was also a narcissistic man and he did not care about his son and this can be proved in “Letter to His Father”. “The Metamorphosis” can be perceived as a sample of the solace that Kafka did in order to expel his demons against his father and so is “Letter to His Father”. After Gregor becomes a bug, he can not longer communicate with his father and this a representation of what Kafka felt inside him with his own father since his father intransigent with him.
Option A is not correct as the confusion of Gregor Samsa does not have anything to do with the fact that he converted into a bug, so it would not make sense since it does not have a direct connection with Kafka’s relationship with his father.
Option B is not correct as the pain that Gregor feels inside of him is not the consequence of the bad relationship that Kafka had with this father. The fact that he is unable to go off the bed in order to continue with his life is something that is not connected with the fact that Kafka and his father did not have a good father and son relationship.
Option D is not correct since Gregor knows perfectly why his sister did not want to go inside his room with their parents as she has become a different person since Gregor converted into a bug. She does not want to see him because he is now a disgusting and bizarre creature; he is not her brother anymore. Although Gregor was a good brother with her, and supported her with her studies, it seems she has forgotten about that. Nonetheless, the relationship between Gregor and her sister does not represent any aspect in “Letter to His Father”.
