The Metamorphosis

Acclaimed graphic artist Peter Kuper presents a brilliant, darkly comic reimagining of Kafka' s classic tale of family, alienation, and a giant bug. Kuper' s electric drawings-- which merge American cartooning with German expressionism-- bring Kafka' s prose to vivid life, reviving the original story' s humor and poignancy in a way that will surprise and delight readers of Kafka and graphic novels alike.
" A brilliant illustrated adaptation of Franz Kafka' s famous story. It' s a real pleasure to read and one in which everyone will recognize the existential drama and uncanny wit of the original text." -- Susan Bernstein, associate professor of comparative literature and German studies, Brown University
