SUMMARY:
Gregor Samsa wakes up one morning and finds himself turned into a "monstrous vermin," with an insectoid abdomen and legs. He originally believes that this is only a temporary delusion, and that he will become normal in a few minutes. He then realises that he is stuck on his back and tries to wriggle out of bed and reflects on his work as a traveling salesman. He describes it as being full of "temporary and constantly changing human relationships, which never come from the heart". He sees his boss as a dictator & admits that he would leave his job would it not jeopardize his family. While trying to get out of bed, the head clerk from his job comes to check on him as he was not at the train station earlier. Gergor tries to talk with his family and the clerk, but all they can hear is strange animal like noises. Gregor eventually opens the door. The clerk on seeing him, flees the apartment, and his family is terrified of him. His father grabs a cane and a newspaper, and hits and hisses at Gregor until he is shoved back into his room.
