Metamorphosis - Other Stories

This collection of new translations brings together the small proportion of Kafka's works that he thought worthy of publication. It includes -Metamorphosis-, his most famous work, an exploration of horrific transformation and alienation; -Meditation-, a collection of his earlier studies; -The Judgement-, written in a single night of frenzied creativity; -The Stoker-, the first chapter of a novel set in America and a fascinating occasional piece, -The Aeroplanes at Brescia-, Kafka's eyewitness account of an air display in 1909. Together, these stories reveal the breadth of Kafka's literary vision and the extraordinary imaginative depth of his thought.
