The Metamorphosis – Franz Kafka (Clothbound edition, includes magnetic bookmark)

“I cannot make you understand. I cannot make anyone understand what is happening inside me. I cannot even explain it to myself.” A quiet, unsettling classic about alienation, duty, and the horror of being useful only while you function. When Gregor Samsa wakes up transformed into something monstrous, the real metamorphosis isn’t his body – it’s how quickly love, patience, and responsibility evaporate around him. Kafka turns the everyday into something nightmarish, exposing how family, work, and identity collapse when you no longer fit the role expected of you. Short, sharp, and endlessly interpretable, this is a book that stays lodged under the skin. Condition New and unread. Complimentary magnetic bookmark included.
