Kafka's Imagery in Metamorphosis
One detail that is so unique to Franz Kafka that I have noticed while reading the first chapter of "The Metamorphosis" is how Kafka expresses such a unique and vivid imagery throughout the chapter. Between explaining the monster that Gregory has turned into or the confusion caused between the office manager and Gregory's parents, Kafka paints a picture that makes his work so easy to read and imagine. It felt as if I was in the same room as Greg as he was struggling to get out of the bed and open the door. Kafka also brings the reader into the chase of the office manager out of the house when his family finally sees the monster that Gregory has somehow turned into. I am very eager to keep reading this wonderfully detailed story by Franz Kafka.
