Franz Kafka (1883-1924), an Austrian novelist, was little known during his lifetime and his works were not taken seriously. After his death, his literary reputation rose and he became famous in the world of literature. His novels such as "The Castle", "The Missing" and "The Proceedings" have been widely circulated around the world and have had a great impact on modernist literature; he is praised as the founder of modernist literature and is known as "the writer among writers"; his novels have become must-read works for many writers and are considered "works that need to be read carefully and extensively". "The Metamorphosis - A Collection of Kafka's Short and Novels" includes all of Kafka's short and medium stories, among which "The Metamorphosis", "In the Penal Colony", "At the Gate of the Law", "The Hungry Artist", "The Village Teacher", "The Construction of the Great Wall of China", "A Study of a Dog", etc. Are all popular masterpieces. They all use symbols, metaphors, exaggeration and other techniques, with vivid plots and concise and smooth language; the stories are weird and bizarre, with no definite time and place, no cause and effect, giving people a dreamy, mysterious and strange feeling. The protagonists of the works are almost always in a situation where they can't help themselves. They all have their own goals in the bizarre world, but they often end up failing. Mr. Zhang Rongchang, a senior translator and professor at Peking University, has devoted himself to the study of Kafka for decades, and single-handedly translated "The Metamorphosis - A Collection of Kafka's Short and Novels".
