"When Gregor woke up in the morning, he found that he had turned into a beetle. No one cared about his life after transformation. His father smashed an apple into his back, his mother screamed and fainted in fright, and his sister regarded him as a burden. Even though he was a beetle, he was still thinking about what to do. Supporting this family. Under the hypocritical love, he appears innocent and helpless, clumsy and humble. The brokenness of self and the despair of waiting for death finally end in the inability of his thin legs to move. Is he really dead, or is he pretending to be dead for the sake of love?
