smt1 Follow goodreads reviewers aren't human smt1 arcueidbrunstud 5s I agree. but what classic book was it this time metamorphosis smt1 410 literally wasnt even going to post it bc it made me so infuriated but the joys of making fun of someone together online won over. check this out. from the #1 RATED GOODREADS REVIEWER You (Gregor) turned into a giant bug. Your family alternated between fearing, caring, and loathing you in your bug-body. Ultimately, you began doing lots of creepy bug-things and became a burden to them. Then you starved to death and your parents got their spare bedroom back. *slow clapping* Okaaaay, if you haven't already guessed, I didn't enjoy this one. I am not a fan of books where things just "happen without any sort of explanation. Nor if books that give off a consistently dreary feeling throughout. I could summarize the entire book as: Gregor turns into a bug, it was not a smart move. Which is slightly misrepresenting the book - cause the book actually has Gregor turning into a bug without any rhyme or reason. Actually. Wait moment. This is probably one of those books where everything is a representation of something significant in real life. An "Important Novel", if you will. Lemme Wikipedia this. Ok. I'm back. Apparently the bug thing is either a metaphor for a "father complex" (Gregor's dad was the most anti-Gregor/anti-bug character) or a take on the "artist struggle" (Gregor's sister is the cruelest, because she can make music). I mean, maybe? I guess that could be what the book means...? There's a cruel father and a gifted daughter...but who knows. I guess the book is so open to interpretation that it could literally mean just about anything. It kind of feels like one of those books just written for the hell of it and then some English teachers got a hold of it and now it's become an Important Novel. Therefore, I'm going to stick with my original interpretation - it's a rather pointless novel about a bug that dies. Personally, I did not like the style, the characters and the ending. It felt painful to read, the emotions and the feelings associated with the events just felt incredibly depressing. Plus, as a personal pet peeve - plenty of things happen without a solid explanation or clear motivation... which actually funnels back into my "English teachers got ahold of this novel" theory quite well. I tried I really did... But now Im killing goodreads reviewers there are no words.
