Metamorphosis and Other Stories

A reissue of the Penguin Modern Classics edition, this collection of new translations brings together the small proportion of Kafka`s works that he himself 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, and `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.
