1916FK003Leipzig: Kurt Wolff Verlag 1916 First edition. Publishers gray wrappers with 3 leaves of advertisements at rear in original pictorial dust jacket. Book with slight lean to spine interior clean; jacket folds lightly rubbed very light wear to spine ends with title and author inked on spine by previous owner. The Metamorphosis was first published serially in German under the title Die Verwandlung in the avant-garde journal Die weissen Blätter in October 1915 and in book format by Kurt Wolff Verlag in December of the same year. It tells the story of the anti-hero Gregor Samsa an overworked travelling salesman who awakens to find himself transformed into an ungeheueres Ungeziefer or as Lloyd translates "some monstrous kind of vermin;" Kafka's deliberately vague description of Samsa's new insect-like body which in the original German is emphasized as being dirty and bottom-feeding makes a direct translation into English extremely difficult but is generally accepted to be a cockroach. As Gregor realizes his own transformation the cause of which is never explained his family's opinion of him similarly transforms as they are both frustrated by his inability to continue to support them financially and disgusted by his new physical appearance. The Metamorphosis is widely considered one of the most influential works of the 20th century. First Edition. Original Wraps. Near Fine. Leipzig: Kurt Wolff Verlag paperback books
2034First edition. Original wrappers. FIRST EDITION THE PREFERRED ISSUE IN ILLUSTRATED WRAPPERS OF ONE OF THE MASTERPIECES OF WORLD LITERATURE. "On the evening of November 17 1912 a young employee of the Workmen's Accident Insurance Agency in Prague sat down to work on a 'troubling little story' that had occurred to him 'in bed' the previous night. After spending the first part of the day in the office he returned to the apartment he shared with his parents and thee sisters had lunch napped took a walk and then did a series of strengthening and stretching calisthenics. This was his daily ritual before settling in for the evening - and often far into the night - to what he considered his true life a life dedicated to writing. Then whether acting on a long-meditated plan or following an obscure sudden intuition he set down the words of the first hammerlike sentence of what would become his most famous story and one of the defining works of modern imaginative fiction The Metamorphosis or more simply 'The Transformation': 'When Gregor Samsa woke one morning from troubled dreams he found himself transformed right there in his bed into some sort of monstrous insect.' Ever since readers have been mesmerized amused puzzled irritated and unsettled by Gregor's life-changing transformation" Mark M. Anderson ed. The Metamorphosis.<br /> <br /> With the famous illustration by Ottomar Starke on the front wrapper. Kafka was adamant that the illustration not depict a bug writing in a letter to the publishing house: "The insect itself must not be illustrated by a drawing. It cannot be shown at all not even from a distance." <br /> <br /> The Metamorphosis was one of the few works published by Kafka in his lifetime. <br /> <br /> Leipzig: Kurt Wolff 1915. Octavo original illustrated wrappers dated 1916 as usual over red paper covers; custom cloth box. A little foxing to front wrapper; text exceptionally clean and fresh. An excellent copy of one of the cornerstones of Western literature. unknown books
19152037Leipzig: Der Weissen Bücher 1915. First edition. Original wrappers. Very Good. FIRST APPEARANCE OF A MASTERPIECE OF WESTERN LITERATURE PRECEDING THE FIRST BOOK EDITION. "Kafka read the first section of his 'bug piece' Wanzensache aloud to friends on November 24 1912 and again on December 15. People started talking about it and Kafka received a query from publisher Kurt Wolff in March 1913 on the recommendation of Kafka's friend Franz Werfel. Franz Blei the literary editor of the new avant-garde journal Die weissen Blätter expressed interest and Robert Musil wrote as well soliciting the novella for the more established Die neue Rundschau. But months passed before Kafka had a clean manuscript ready for submission and then World War I intervened causing further delays. In the spring of 1915 René Schickele took over as editor-in-chief of Die weissen Blätter and with Max Brod's help Kafka placed the story there. It came out in October 1915 and then appeared in December 1915 though dated 1916 as a slender volume published by Kurt Wolff Verlag in Leipzig" Susan Bernofsky The New Yorker.
