Une adaptation manga marquante du célèbre roman La Métamorphose de Franz Kafka !Un matin, au réveil, je m'aperçois de quelque chose d'anormal : je me suis transformé en insecte géant ! Mais ça ne change rien ! Je dois aller travailler et gagner de quoi faire vivre ma famille !
Voici l'adaptation en manga de la fameuse
Métamorphose de Kafka, le précurseur de la littérature existentialiste. Quand un homme du commun prisonnier d'un quotidien banal est victime d'une incroyable métamorphose décrite sérieusement, mais parfois comique, on s'approche de l'existentialisme...
Franz Kafka connut d'abord Milena comme traductrice : elle établissait la version tchèque de quelques-unes de ses proses courtes. Ces relations se transformèrent en une liaison passionnée dont les lettres permettent de suivre le progrès. Cette passion ne dura qu'un instant, elle tient en quelques mois à peine.
Les lettres racontent d'un bout à l'autre ce roman d'amour, orgie de désespoir et de félicité, de mortification et d'humiliation. Car quelle qu'ait pu être la fréquence de leurs rencontres, leurs amours restent essentiellement épistolaires comme celles de Werther ou de Kierkegaard.
Milena est morte vingt ans après Kafka, dans le camp de concentration de Ravensbrück.
"Blumfeld, un célibataire plus très jeune, regagnait un soir son logement, ce qui était une tâche éprouvante, car il habitait au sixième étage. Pendant cette ascension, il pensait, comme souvent ces derniers temps, que cette existence totalement solitaire était bien ennuyeuse, qu'il était là réduit à gravir ces six étages littéralement à l'insu de tous pour arriver en haut dans sa chambre déserte, pour à nouveau littéralement à l'insu de tous y passer sa robe de chambre, allumer sa pipe, lire un peu une revue française à laquelle il était abonné depuis des années, tout en sirotant un kirsch qu'il faisait lui-même, et finalement, au bout d'une demi-heure, se mettre au lit."
Empreints de thématiques chères à l'auteur, comme les rapports sociaux ou le sens de la vie, ces textes reflètent la singularité et l'originalité de la plume d'un des écrivains majeurs du XXe siècle.
Step into the enigmatic world of Franz Kafka's literary masterpiece, "The Trial," where the boundaries between guilt and innocence blur, and the relentless pursuit of justice becomes a nightmarish ordeal.
In this haunting and thought-provoking novel, we follow the bewildering journey of Josef K., an ordinary bank employee who wakes up one morning to find himself inexplicably arrested for an undisclosed crime. With no knowledge of his alleged offense or the identity of his accusers, Josef is thrust into an eerie and labyrinthine legal system that seems designed to confound and destroy him.
As Josef navigates the bewildering bureaucratic maze, his desperate search for answers becomes entangled in a web of obscure laws, faceless officials, and inexplicable delays. He encounters a series of bizarre characters, each with their own peculiar agendas, who seem determined to undermine his every move. Is he a victim of a cruel and absurd system, or is there a deeper meaning behind his trial?
"The Trial" delves into the human condition, exploring themes of guilt, identity, power, and existential alienation. Kafka's unparalleled narrative style draws readers into a disorienting world where logic and reason are shattered, and the individual's struggle against an indifferent and faceless authority takes center stage.
With its haunting atmosphere, philosophical depth, and timeless relevance, "The Trial" continues to captivate readers and provoke introspection. Kafka's unique blend of surrealism and social critique raises profound questions about the nature of justice, the power structures that govern society, and the individual's place within them.
"The Trial" is a literary masterpiece that challenges our perceptions of reality, leaving an indelible mark on the landscape of modern literature. This edition, meticulously translated and faithfully capturing the essence of Kafka's prose, offers a fresh opportunity to experience the haunting brilliance of one of the greatest works in world literature.
Embark on a journey through an enigmatic world where justice becomes an enigma, and the search for truth becomes an existential quest. Discover "The Trial" and unlock the mysterious depths of Kafka's imagination.

La tana è uno degli ultimi racconti di Franz Kafka, scritto durante la sua permanenza a Berlino nel 1923, all'incirca sei mesi prima della morte. Il racconto narra dei continui disperati sforzi intrapresi da un protagonista - per metà umano e per metà animale - di costruirsi un'abitazione perfetta, così da potersi proteggere efficacemente dai suoi nemici invisibili. In tutto il testo (rimasto incompiuto) vi è l'idea ossessiva di riuscir a realizzare una complessa opera architettonica, e dalla paura d'esser attaccato da potenziali nemici i quali però non danno mai prova d'esistenza reale: la tana, creata in questa costante ricerca di perfezione, non produce però quella pace e tranquillità che s'attendeva di trovare ma, piuttosto, ciò gli provoca ansie crescenti.
Franz Kafka è uno dei più celebri interpreti della complessità del vissuto umano e delle angosce che turbano la nostra epoca. Nacque a Praga nel 1883, figlio di un agiato negoziante, gretto e autoritario, con cui visse sempre in conflitto. Trascorse un'esistenza apparentemente monotona e priva di grandi avvenimenti. Poco dopo la laurea s'impiegò in un ente pubblico, dove rimase fino a due anni prima della sua prematura scomparsa nel 1924.

"As Gregor Samsa awoke one morning from uneasy dreams he found himself transformed in his bed into a gigantic insect. He was laying on his hard, as it were armor-plated, back and when he lifted his head a little he could see his domelike brown belly divided into stiff arched segments on top of which the bed quilt could hardly keep in position and was about to slide off completely. His numerous legs, which were pitifully thin compared to the rest of his bulk, waved helplessly before his eyes."
With it's startling, bizarre, yet surprisingly funny first opening, Kafka begins his masterpiece, The Metamorphosis. It is the story of a young man who, transformed overnight into a giant beetle-like insect, becomes an object of disgrace to his family, an outsider in his own home, a quintessentially alienated man. A harrowing-though absurdly comic-meditation on human feelings of inadequacy, guilt, and isolation, The Metamorphosis has taken its place as one of the most widely read and influential works of twentieth-century fiction. As W.H. Auden wrote, "Kafka is important to us because his predicament is the predicament of modern man."
