Metamorphosis and Other Stories: (Penguin Classics Deluxe Edition)

A brilliant new translation of Kafka€s best-known work, published for the 125th anniversary of his birth
 
This collection of new translations brings together the small proportion of Kafka€s works that he 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, 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.
