About the Book

This beautifully designed hardcover edition in the Dover Bookshelf series presents six riveting short stories, including "The Metamorphosis," capturing Franz Kafka's blend of the mundane and surreal.

Book Synopsis

Franz Kafka is a master at blending the mundane with the surreal. His unique, compelling narratives examine themes of existential dread and bureaucratic absurdity, challenge reality, and promise a riveting journey through the uncanny corridors of the human psyche. Translated into English by renowned translator Stanley Appelbaum, this collectible volume includes six short stories of universal significance: "The Metamorphosis," "The Judgment," "In the Penal Colony," "A Country Doctor," "A Report to an Academy," and "A Hunger Artist." This beautifully designed hardcover edition in the Dover Bookshelf series brilliantly captures Kafka's exploration of the human condition with an unrelenting realism and potent allegorical symbolism, making it an affordable treasure trove for literary scholars, bibliophiles, and general readers.
