Through his writings, Franz Kafka conveys a pessimistic view of reality. If an adjective has been coined from this Prague-born author's name, it is because the world he depicts is indeed characterized by destruction and strangeness. He uses his work as a kind of outlet for human suffering. His writing shines a spotlight on the modern individual, portrayed as a prisoner of uncertainties beyond his control. Given this, can we say that Kafka's work lends itself to a Romantic interpretation? His short story, *The Metamorphosis*, is a tale of loneliness, monotony, and society's rejection of what is considered abnormal. Is this not a new vision of the world celebrated by the Romantics?
