The Meowmorphosis

The phenomenal success ofPride and Prejudice and Zombiesinspired a massively popular literary-remix movement. Now Quirk Classics once again charts bold new territory, turning the monster-mash-up formula inside out to infuse Franz Kafkars"s horrific masterpiece, "The Metamorphosis," with the fuzziest, snuggliest, most adorable creatures possible:kittens! Gregor Samsa is a humble young man who supports his unemployed parents and teenage sister by working as a traveling fabric salesman. But his life goes strangely wrong in the very first sentence ofThe Meowmorphosis, when he wakes up late for work and discovers that he has inexplicably become an adorable kitten. His family must admit that, yes, their son is nowOMG so cute-but what good is cute when there are bills to pay? How can Gregor be so selfish as to devote his attention to a ball of yarn? And how dare he jump out the bedroom window to wander through Kafkars"s literary landscape? Never before has a catrs"s tale been so poignant, strange, and horrifyingly funny.
