#009 The Metamorphosis, Franz Kafka - a podcast by C R Booth and R D Jay

It's stressful enough turning into a responsible adult, so imagine the aggro involved when you wake up one morning to be a giant insect. Or... wait, is it a monster? Or a creature? You just never know with those Europeans, but that won't stop Ryan and Callum getting stuck in as they look at Franz Kafka's The Metamorphosis.

Other things amongst discussion are Franz's fondness for brothels, whether Max Brod is a true friend, and other bits of balderdash that are somehow related to Kafka's triumph, all in the name of making sense of this absolute brain blotch of a tale. As always, expect merciless spoilers and unapologetic swearing.
