The Metamorphosis

The Metamorphosis - Franz Kafka

10.07.07


A philo prof told my block in a workshop that one must not be pretentious. He said that if one does not like or understand Franz Kafka, one must not deliberately lie to others just to fit in. He said that his reaction to The Metamorphosis was: "Bakit naging bug?"

True, true. Bandwagoners suck.

My reaction was no different. I was all "wtf?", quickly followed by "okay..."

It seemed pointless to me, and it still does, unless one is willing to do some analytical acrobatics to derive something from it. A friend told me that it had something to do with human loneliness or whatnot.

Okay.
