I thank Metamorphosis for at long-last defining what "Kafkaesque" meant.

Damn, that was a trippy-ass book...

I don't think that link goes to the correct story.

No...see that one has well over 42 pages. Over 100 in fact.

It's unlikley that April could handle that much...plus it's a rather serious topic. We know April can't handle those.

If you *are* interested in reading it, Project Gutenberg to the rescue: Metamorphosis.

Shweet, thanks perth. I've been wanting to read Metam for a while now. I even *tried* to purchase it on Amazon a few months back... but what I ended up ordering was the fricken play of Metamorphosis. Bleh. It was all of 15-20 pages long.

Anyhow, looks like I have something to fill my dead time with now.

Oh, and if while we're on the topic of classics, I'd like to recommend the last book I finished, 'The Trial' by Kafka. Excellent.
