“Takes meta-fiction to dizzying new heights. “Highly recommended for connoisseurs of the bizarre.”-Publishers Weekly 15 A sequel Samsa in Love was written as a short story by Haruki Murakami in his 2017 book Men Without Women. Complete with haunting illustrations and a provocative biographical exposé of Kafka’s own secret feline life, The Meowmorphosis will take you on a journey deep into the tortured soul of the domestic tabby. The Meowmorphosis was released in 2011 by Quirk Books as part of the Quirk Classics series a mash-up retelling by Coleridge Cook, where Gregor Samsa wakes up as an adorable kitten, instead of a hideous insect. His family freaks out: Yes, their son is OMG so cute, but what good is cute when there are bills piling up? And how can he expect them to serve him meals every day? If Gregor is to survive this bizarre, bewhiskered ordeal, he’ll have to achieve what he never could before-escape from his parents’ house.

His life goes strangely awry when he wakes up late for work and finds that, inexplicably, he is now a man-sized baby kitten.

Thus begins The Meowmorphosis-a bold, startling, and fuzzy-wuzzy new edition of Franz Kafka’s classic nightmare tale, from the publishers of Pride and Prejudice and Zombies! Meet Gregor Samsa, a humble young man who works as a fabric salesman to support his parents and sister.

“One morning, as Gregor Samsa was waking up from anxious dreams, he discovered that he had been changed into an adorable kitten.”
