Kafka was a very dark soul who saw all the misery that the everyman was suffering through the bureaucracy that they had to deal with in Prague in the early 20th century and wrote stories which were based on how he felt about it, although very fictionalized. Metamorphosis, which this is about, is about a man who turns into a beetle and, after being abandoned by everyone including his family, becomes more and more insect-like in his mind until he finally dies.
In Metamorphosis, unlike the comic, he begs his boss to let him go back to work, but to no avail because he can’t communicate anymore.
Anyone wanna explain kafka for an outta the looper?
There’s a guy
One day he wakes up and he is a beetle
There is no further explanation. That’s Kafka.
To elaborate a bit more: if you’re feeling confused, that is the correct emotion
It’s a lot more complex than that and there is further explanation.
