Trained as a lawyer, he worked in insurance while writing in his spare time, producing landmark works such as The Trial, The Castle, and The Metamorphosis. His distinctive blend of surrealism, dark humour, and existential dread gave rise to the term \"Kafkaesque.\" Though he published little during his lifetime and asked for his manuscripts to be destroyed, his friend Max Brod defied those wishes, securing Kafka's posthumous reputation as one of literature's most original voices.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Wilco International","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":71280941662461,"sku":null,"price":798.0,"currency_code":"NPR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0484\/4145\/8840\/files\/61iAAx5orAL._SL1200.jpg?v=1789139832","url":"https:\/\/biblionepal.com\/products\/the-metamorphosis-and-other-stories","provider":"BIBLIONEPAL","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
