3. See the book the little girl was reading?

Thanks for these n2doc.

4. Metamorphosis?

[Helen Borg]

5. Kafka wrote much more than that.

Perhaps she was reading Amerika by Kafka...

[longship]

6. I know that, but in context Metamorphosis seemed appropriate. nt

[Helen Borg]

7. Not sure why...

In the Metamorphosis, the main character knows he is transformed into something else. In this case, the woman just experiences the injustice, but knows that she is the same person...

[longship]

8. Because it's humorous.

As would any confluence with a story of changing into a cockroach. It's the absurdity of it.

[Helen Borg]

9. Hmmm, I bet the person who did that...

Did not actually read anything by Kafka... It makes little sense, actually.

[longship]

11. One might be a pedant when... (Updated)

Of course it doesn't make sense. That's the humor in it.

[Helen Borg]

12. Humor is not the same as "not making sense", I'm afraid!

...

[longship]

13. Absurdity can be funny,

But let's both let this one go.

[Helen Borg]

14. But not all absurdities are funny... :)

[el_bryanto]

16. I would argue for the Trial or the Castle myself. nt

[Helen Borg]

18. Good candidates...

Ominous, capricious, and dark bureaucracies at work in both cases.
