Résumé

"When Gregor Samsa awoke one morning from troubled dreams, he found himself changed into a monstrous cockroach in his bed" Kafka's masterpiece of unease and black humour, Metamorphosis, the story of an ordinary man transformed into an insect, is brought together in this collection with the rest of his works that he thought worthy of publication. It includes Contemplation, 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 his literary vision and the extraordinary imaginative depth of his thought.

À propos de l'auteur

Franz Kafka

Biographie de Franz Kafka

Franz Kafka (1883-1924) was a Czech-born German-speaking insurance clerk who despised his job, preferring to spend his time writing. Nevertheless, Kafka published little during his lifetime, and ordered his closest friend to burn the mass of unpublished manuscripts - now familiar to us as some of the most influential novels and short stories of the twentieth century - after his death. Kafka's novels, all available in Penguin Modern Classics, include The Trial, The Castle and Amerika.
Michael Hofmann is a poet and translator from the German. For Penguin he has translated works by Franz Kafka, Hans Fallada, Ernst Jünger, Irmgard Keun and Jakob Wassermann.
