[奧]弗朗茨·卡夫卡
推銷員格里高爾一夜變成甲蟲,被家人厭棄,最終在孤獨絕望中死去,折射出人性異化與生存困境。
這本書展現出作者豐富的想象力,篇幅雖然不長,但是人物形象刻畫生動,情感描寫也非常細膩。故事大概內容是男主Gregor一覺醒來變成一隻大甲蟲,他的家人一開始都感到震驚恐懼難以理解,家人接受現實後但是在日常生活中害怕疏遠刻意遠離迴避男主,再到最後男主成爲家人的累贅和負擔被厭煩拋棄,男主最終在孤獨中死去。
Kafka’s story uses a man turning into a bug to show how fragile family love really is. It suggests that in a world focused on money and work, people lose their value when they can no longer contribute. It is a sad look at loneliness and the loss of human connection.
