Franz Kafka -> Meptamorphsis
This book man, just wow. for those who want a summary, a man wakes up having been turned into a human sized beetle - his first thought is "how will i get to work".
i finished this in the back of an english classroom i wasnt really supposed to be in and fully had to take a few minutes to recover. Kafka has an incredible way with words which was suprisingly accessable i literally got through this in like one and a half days cus i was nothing short of enthralled.
the alegory for disablity throughout is both incredible and gut-wrenching and the critique of capitialism that intertwines with this is very well excucted. gotta love a cheeky critique of capitalism to brighten up your morning.
TLDR: absolutely devestated, 5 stars.
