变形记 (Metamorphosis)

本书囊括了卡夫卡所有的中短篇小说，其中《变形记》|《在流放地》、《在法的大门前》、《饥饿的艺术家》、《乡村教师》等都是脍炙人口的名篇。它们均采用象征、隐喻、夸张等手法，情节生动，语言简洁流畅；故事怪诞离奇，无确定的时间和地点，无前因后果，给人以梦幻、神秘、奇特的感觉。作品的主人公几乎都处于一种身不由己的境地，他们在离奇古怪的世界中都有自己的目标，但往往又以失败而告终。(This book includes all Kafka's medium and short stories, including Metamorphosis, In the Penal Colony, In Front of the Law's Gate, The Hungry Artist and Rural Teachers. They all use symbolism, metaphor, hyperbole and so on. The plot is vivid and the language is concise and fluent; the story is grotesque and has no definite time and place which gives readers the mysterious, strange feeling. His protagonists are almost in a position involuntarily. They all have their own goals in droller world, but often end in failure.)
