The transformation camel's posts

Author's name: Franz Kafka Publisher: Al-Jamal Publications for Publishing and Distribution Year of publication: 2015 Literary classification: Novel Brief about the book: Kafka presents the incident of the physical "transformation" of his hero, Gregor Samsa, in the first sentence of his long story, "The Metamorphosis": "When Gregor Samsa woke up one morning from unsettling dreams, he found himself transformed, in his bed, into a giant insect." Of course, such transformations are themes of myths, tales, and stories (fantastical and others), and have existed, without doubt, in the vast majority of human cultures. There are well-known literary cases of this type of transformation, for example, in the stories of the book "The Metamorphoses" by Ovid, as well as in "The Golden Ass" by Apuleius, and in many stories of "One Thousand and One Nights," to name but a few.
