Story
"Die Verwandlung" gehört zu den wenigen Werken, die noch zu Kafkas Lebzeiten veröffentlicht wurden. Sie entstand im November/Dezember 1912 in drei Teilen. Ursprünglich nur eine kleine Idee, für die Kafka die Arbeit am Roman "Der Verschollene" (Amerika) unterbrach, wuchs sie sich schnell zu einer recht umfangreichen Novelle aus.

Story
"Die Verwandlung" ist eine im Jahr 1912 entstandene Erzählung von Franz Kafka. Die Geschichte handelt von Gregor Samsa, dessen plötzliche Verwandlung in ein Ungeziefer die Kommunikation seines sozialen Umfelds mit ihm immer mehr hemmt, bis er von seiner Familie für untragbar gehalten wird und schließlich zugrunde geht. Mit einem Umfang von rund 70 Druckseiten handelt es sich um die längste der von Kafka für abgeschlossen gehaltenen und zu seinen Lebzeiten veröffentlichten Erzählungen.

Story
Der Tuchhändler Gregor Samsa erwacht eines Morgens in Gestalt eines riesigen Käfers. Seine Familie reagiert schockiert und hilflos, hatte er doch bislang für ihrer aller Unterhalt gesorgt. Anfangs pflegen und füttern sie ihren ehemaligen Sohn und Bruder noch, doch mehr und mehr überwiegt der Ekel vor dem Ungeheuer. Die Situation eskaliert, als Gregor von seinem Vater lebensbedrohlich verletzt wird. Gregors Verwandlung ist ein stiller Aufschrei gegen Ohnmacht und Unmenschlichkeit in der modernen Welt.

Story
Als der junge Handlungsreisende Gregor Samsa eines Morgens aus seinen Träumen erwacht, findet er sich plötzlich als ungeheures Insekt wieder. Gregor, der zwar unter der Trostlosigkeit und der Härte seiner Umwelt zu leiden hat, denkt jedoch zu aller erst daran, dass er wohl zu spät zur Arbeit kommen wird. Natürlich ist auch Gregors Familie angewidert von seinem Anblick, lässt den Sohn aber solange bei sich wohnen, bis schließlich... Gregor Samsa, von vielen als literarisches alter ego Franz Kafkas betrachtet, lässt Sie nicht mehr los, wenn sich seine Gedanken um seine Metamorphose entfesseln.

Story
Zwei Verwandlungen werden in Kafkas humorvoll-erschreckender Erzählung beschrieben: die Gregor Samsas, als Andeutung auch eines "coming out", und die der Schwester Grete Samsa, die in dem Bruder nurmehr das Untier sehen will, das dem Leben im Wege steht. Indem sie Zweifel und Mitleid abstreift, ihren Blick mit kühler Distanz überzieht, sagt sie sich von ihrem Bruder los und reduziert ihn zum entmenschlichten Neutrum, zur Sächlichkeit des "es". "Weg muß es" rief die Schwester, "das ist das einzige Mittel, Vater. Du mußt bloß den Gedanken loszuwerden suchen, daß es Gregor ist.

Nur wenige seiner Werke hielt Franz Kafka für gu genug, um der Nachwelt erhalten zu bleiben. Die Verwandlung gehört dazu. Gregor Samsa findet sich eines Morgens in ein großes Ungeziefer verwandelt. Er nimmt diese Metamorphose scheinbar stoisch hin - doch wie soll und wird es weitergehen? Kafkas wohl berühmtestes Werk.

Story
"Als Gregor Samsa eines Morgens aus unruhigen Träumen erwachte, fand er sich in seinem Bett zu einem ungeheueren Ungeziefer verwandelt." Dieser erste Satz aus Franz Kafkas Erzählung Die Verwandlung gilt völlig zu Recht als einer der besten Romananfänge der Literaturgeschichte. Dabei gibt es im Grunde nichts Langweiligeres als eine Geschichte morgens mit dem Aufwachen des Hauptprotagonisten beginnen zu lassen. Doch Gregor Samsa wacht nicht einfach auf – nein, er "erwacht" und zwar aus "unruhigen Träumen".

"Als Gregor Samsa eines Morgens aus unruhigen Träumen erwachte, fand er sich in seinem Bett zu einem ungeheuren Ungeziefer verwandelt." So beginnt Franz Kafkas Erzählung "Die Verwandlung" und schildert im Folgenden den vergeblichen Versuch von Gregor und dessen Familie, sich irgendwie mit der neuen Situation zu arrangieren. Was zunächst unter größten Entbehrungen gelingt, endet schließlich - je mehr Außenstehende in diese Katastrophe einbezogen werden - mit dem tragischen Tod Gregors.

In a galaxy ravaged by tyranny, planets are destroyed at the push of a button, and empires are brought down by farm boys and scoundrels. Dark Zader was one of the most powerful men in the galaxy, but when he threw his emperor down a shaft, he found himself without a job. Living with his kids and down on his luck, he finds that he only has one solution: beg for his old job back from the very emperor he thought he'd killed.

Nina Sankovitch has always been a reader. As a child, she discovered that a trip to the local bookmobile with her sisters was more exhilarating than a ride at the carnival. Books were the glue that held her immigrant family together. When Nina's eldest sister died at the age of 46, Nina turned to books for comfort, escape, and introspection. In her beloved purple chair, she rediscovered the magic of such writers as Toni Morrison, Nathaniel Hawthorne, Ian McEwan, Edith Wharton, and, of course, Leo Tolstoy. Through the connections Nina made with books and authors (and even other readers), her life changed profoundly.

Story
In 1957, four years before his death, Carl Gustav Jung, psychiatrist and psychologist, began writing his life story. But what started as an exercise in autobiography soon morphed into an altogether more profound undertaking. The result is an absorbing piece of self-analysis: a frank statement of faith, philosophy, and principles from one of the great explorers of the human mind.

Story
In 1957, four years before his death, Carl Gustav Jung, psychiatrist and psychologist, began writing his life story. But what started as an exercise in autobiography soon morphed into an altogether more profound undertaking. The result is an absorbing piece of self-analysis: a frank statement of faith, philosophy, and principles from one of the great explorers of the human mind.

Covering everything from Sun Tzu's strategy for winning at board games to Freud's insights into our 'death drive'; why De Beauvoir believed the mothering instinct is a myth to why Schopenhauer probably wasn't much fun at parties, these mini meditations will expand your mind (and bend it too).

Story
It’s 1927, and the most devastating flood in American history has swelled the Mississippi River to a width of eighty miles. In an attempt to save a family trapped by the rising water, four men in a tiny rowboat battle the treacherous flow: three are convicts, on loan from the local prison and pressed into service; the fourth, the leader of the team, is driven by his own hidden motives. But to their surprise upon arrival at Ballymore, an ancestral home protected by a high, circular levee, not everyone in the family feels the need to be saved.

William Waters grew up in a house silenced by tragedy, where his parents could hardly bear to look at him, much less love him—so when he meets the spirited and ambitious Julia Padavano in his freshman year of college, it’s as if the world has lit up around him. With Julia comes her family, as she and her three sisters are inseparable: Sylvie, the family’s dreamer, is happiest with her nose in a book; Cecelia is a free-spirited artist; and Emeline patiently takes care of them all.

Story
Greece in the age of heroes. Patroclus, an awkward young prince, has been exiled to the kingdom of Phthia to be raised in the shadow of King Peleus and his golden son, Achilles. “The best of all the Greeks”—strong, beautiful, and the child of a goddess—Achilles is everything the shamed Patroclus is not. Yet despite their differences, the boys become steadfast companions. Their bond deepens as they grow into young men and become skilled in the arts of war and medicine—much to the displeasure and the fury of Achilles’ mother, Thetis, a cruel sea goddess with a hatred of mortals.

Story
Piranesi lives in the House. Perhaps he always has. In his notebooks, day after day, he makes a clear and careful record of its wonders: the labyrinth of halls, the thousands upon thousands of statues, the tides that thunder up staircases, the clouds that move in slow procession through the upper halls. On Tuesdays and Fridays Piranesi sees his friend, the Other. At other times he brings tributes of food to the Dead. But mostly, he is alone.
