{"product_id":"metamorphosis-9781788282437","title":"Metamorphosis","description":"\u003cp\u003e`When Gregor Samsa woke up one morning from unsettling dreams, he found himself changed in his bed into a monstrous vermin.` With this startling, bizarre, yet surprisingly funny first sentence, Kafka begins his masterpiece, `The Metamorphosis.` It is the story of a young man who, transformed overnight into a giant beetlelike insect, becomes an object of disgrace to his family, an outsider in his own home, a quintessentially alienated man. A harrowing -- though absurdly comic -- meditation on human feelings of inadequecy, guilt, and isolation, `The Metamorphosis` has taken its place as one of the mosst widely read and influential works of twentieth-century fiction. As W.H. Auden wrote, `Kafka is important to us because his predicament is the predicament of modern man.`\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Arcturus Publishing Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42977723941030,"sku":"9781788282437","price":17.9,"currency_code":"MYR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0443\/8471\/4918\/products\/9781788282437.jpg?v=1656103925","url":"https:\/\/bookxcess.myshopify.com\/products\/metamorphosis-9781788282437","provider":"Staging Site ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
