When he finally opened the door, they were all shocked, his mother fainted and his father cried, the manager slowly backed out but when Gregor followed him to explain what had happened, the manager screamed while his father chased him back into his room. Gregor not wanting to reveal his transformation to the manager, the manager became mad and started talking loudly about his alleged loss of cash from work and has traveled to Gregor’s home for a possible explanation about the incident, “a possible explanation for your absence- it concerned the collection of cash entrusted to you a short while ago” (Kafka 36). After several attempts to get out of bed, Gregor’s manager from the work arrived and wanted to speak to him, his mother and father covered for him, they said that Gregor was sick. After realizing that he really did transform into a bug his mother called him worried that he would be late for work and then his father and his sister begged him to open the door, but Gregor has no intention of doing so. The story begins with Gregor waking up late for work and noticed that he has transformed into a “monstrous verminous bug” (Kafka 29), not thinking that transforming into a bug is possible, he suggested to sleep a little longer and “forget all this idiocies” (Kafka 29). Kafka has not written why and how Gregor Samsa’s transformation happened, it was probably because he doesn’t want readers to concentrating on how Gregor Samsa had transformed, instead he wanted his readers to know how Gregor Samsa felt after transforming and what he has experience after transformation.Ĭritical analysis of The Metamorphosis by Franz Kafka Julian Preece has written that The Metamorphosis may be linked to Marx works, and she quoted from Walter Stokel that: “Gregor’s profound self alienation corresponds, with uncanny precision, to Marx’s definition of the ‘externalization’ of works under capitalism” (Preece 135).
