" Not a huge fan of Kafka and existentialists writing. "

Nuha_hash | 2/20/2014
" wow ! Kafka made my night miserable.. it's all about redefining the existence of human being rather than adoring a tedious reality. "

" It's like medicine. Just read it because you need to to be an educated person but don't expect to like it. "

Manas Gupta | 1/27/2014
" This was the first time I entered one of the strange worlds of Kafka and I must admit that I was flattered and impressed by the idea and the story. I could not have possibly thought anything as strange as this story. Kafka makes you feel extremely helpless and sad when he describes Gregor Samsa's ordeal. The only thing that I disliked was the end. If I could change it, I would have definitely done it. "

" Depressing is the word that best describes this novel, for me. "
-




Jodi | 1/4/2014
" Appreciated the form and writing style. Clever way to raise awareness of the alienation that difference can cause. No doubt, many people can relate to this on some level. "

Brooke | 11/14/2013
" I appreciated the writing style, but the story was just a bit too out there for me. "
-




Jon Chater | 11/12/2013

Kornelija | 10/24/2013
" It was quite shocking, but very interesting too. You were made to use your imagination a lot and there was left a lot of space for thinking if you know what I mean:) "

-




Katie Laessig | 12/2/2011

-




Anna | 9/11/2011
" Wonderfully surreal, poetic work that befriended my attention span and the world of theatre, manifesting in some tremendous visual arts. "
-




Abrar Al.fozan | 6/19/2011
" It was very disturbing and extremely sad. I just couldn't wrap my head around Gregor's transformation. It's too weird and unexplained. "
-




Tiffany | 5/21/2011
" The title story is great, of course, but the reason I give this collection a 5 instead of a 4 was because of "A Hunger Artist".
"

Lisa | 5/17/2011
" only read the metamorphosis.. found it very interesting, although somewhat strange
"
-




Goleta | 4/23/2011
" i only read metamorphosis. Had to read it for school. Twice!
"
-




Katie | 4/21/2011
" I don't get it. These stories are completely bizarre. The opening lines really drag you in, but then the stories have no real build up or resolution. If I were the judge, I would not give these stories the status of classics. That's really all I have to say about this.
"
-




Darrell | 4/20/2011
" One of the classics. Well worth a read.
"
-




Yare | 4/15/2011
" it was an interesting book, with different stories, one of my favorites is the metamorphosis but was a little sad at the end.. but most dificult was the way Kafka express his ideas, or the situation on the stories.
"

Cooper | 4/11/2011

"
-




Zakiya | 4/6/2011
" I read this book in college as part of the Fiction Writing curriculum. We actually had to write a parody of The Metamorphosis. It's good reading though. I enjoyed his work.

"
-




Sonia | 2/3/2011
" One of the most disgusting and wonderful books Kafka has written. I was grossed out by the description of the cockroach, no doubt. Loved the story and the story telling.
"
-




Kate | 1/21/2011
" Kafka is one of those iconic writers that I really want to like but just don't. I love the premises of his stories, but I find them a chore to actually read. His language is overly formal and rather obfuscatory to me, which is perhaps intentional on his part, but in reality really puts me off.
