FLOP!! BORING!! I did listen to the majority of this audiobook while sitting in a glacial traffic jam so maybe it's negatively colouring this review but idc. this is about gregor who wakes up one day as a bug. that's it that's the book. i don't really think i "got" this book, it just seemed so pointless to me and i don't really know why this book, out of the thousands that are published every year, became a classic?? does this actually resonate with people?? do people actually study this and write essays on it?? what would they even write?? this is just a bucket of nothing. wouldn't recommend. 1.5 stars
