Alexis Spencer will use any inspirational quote to rationalize her failures and shortcomings. Her closest friends are a distant memory, and her college debt is still as high as the day she left. But that’s all fine and dandy, because “whatever will be, will be.” However, when Alexis loses her job and her relationship on the same day, there’s no quote strong enough to get her through that. In typical fashion, she blames the world for her problems, including her younger self, who should have tried harder.

Avec La Métamorphose, Kafka signe l'une des œuvres les plus marquantes de la littérature du XXème siècle. À travers une écriture précise et épurée, il nous plonge dans l'univers angoissant de Gregor Samsa. Le récit est construit comme un lent déclin, où la réalité se délite progressivement, laissant place à l'absurde et au cauchemar. Kafka maîtrise à la perfection les ressorts de la narration, créant une atmosphère oppressante et pesante qui ne lâche pas le lecteur.
