Franz Kafka 
Metamorphosis 

Franz Kafka(1883-1924), Austrian novelist, whose works received little attention during his lifetime, rose to fame and fame in the literary world after his death.His novels The castle, The Missing Man and The Lawsuit are widely circulated in the world and have exerted a great influence on modern literature. He was praised as the founder of modern literature, known as "the writer of writers"; His novels have become must-read works for many writers and are considered "books to be read with the heart". This book includes all Kafka’s medium and short stories, including Metamorphosis, In the Penal Colony, In Front of the Law’s Gate, The Hungry Artist and Rural Teachers. They all use symbolism, metaphor, hyperbole and so on. The plot is vivid and the language is concise and fluent; the story is grotesque and has no definite time and place which gives readers the mysterious, strange feeling. His protagonists are almost in a position involuntarily. They all have their own goals in droller world, but often end in failure.
