About this audiobook
"The Metamorphosis and Other Tales" by Franz Kafka is a collection that thrusts readers into the surreal depths of alienation and existential anxiety. The centerpiece, "The Metamorphosis," tells of Gregor Samsa, a man who awakens transformed into a monstrous insect, exploring themes of isolation and human condition. Accompanied by Kafka's other short stories, each narrative delves into the struggles of individuals confronting oppressive and bewildering forces, revealing the complexities of identity and existence. A haunting journey through the bizarre and profound.
Franz Kafka
Franz Kafka wurde am 3. Juli 1883 in Prag geboren und starb am 3. Juni 1924 in Vierling bei Wien. Er studierte Jura und Germanistik in Prag und legte 1906 seine Promotion zum Doktor der Rechtswissenschaften ab. Nach einer kurzen Zeit als Praktikant am Landgericht Prag war er von 1908 bis 1917 bei einer Versicherungsgesellschaft angestellt. Er erkrankte im Jahr 1917 an Tuberkulose und musste daher seinen Beruf aufgeben. Freundschaften zu Franz Werfel und insbesondere Max Brod und dem Verleger Kurt Wolff waren von großer Bedeutung für Kafkas literarisches Schaffen. Zu seinen wichtigsten Werken gehören die Erzählung „Die Verwandlung“ (1915) sowie die Romane „Der Prozess“ (1925), „Das Schloss“ (1926), „Amerika“ (1927) und eine Reihe kürzerer Prosa, zum Teil posthum erschienen.
