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.
