Book Description | Franz Kafka's ""The Metamorphosis"" climaxes in the very first line - the protagonist has indeed been transformed. The critical questions lie in the interpretation of the transformation. Kafka has been said to have offered everything from a psychological parable of the Oedipal struggle to a caricature of psychological readings. In this collection of new critical essays, Kafka's life and other works are featured as well as notes on the essay contributors. |
Editorial Review | As always with Chelsea critical books, each volume contains the best of what has been written about the authors. "Each attractive volume presents recent essays by noted critics who examine in detail aspects of a single literary work...Highly recommended for academic collections." "Students preparing research papers and students boning up for class will reach eagerly for these well designed additions to accessible literary criticism..." |
