These chilling tales of horror, by Franz Kafka, have struck a chord deep into many people's souls. Though his writing is terrible and nightmarish, it is captivating. In "The Metamorphosis" he confronts the freakish transformation that Gregor Samsa undergoes when he becomes a giant insect. "In the Penal Colony" is even more frightening, the story of a correctional institution run by madmen with their own ideas of punishment. From "The Metamorphosis" to "The Judgement" these novels are for those who like to be frightened. And in the worst ways. |
