Anyone Ever Read the Metamorphasis by Franz Kafka?

[Amazinger]

Yes, I've read The Trial and liked that one. I've read Slaughterhouse Five and Breakfast of Champions, both of which I liked. I'll try out Cat's Cradle soon as well. Thanks for the recommendation.

You're very welcome my "new" bookbuddy. .

Will check it out.

Read Musashi by Eiji yoshikawa, an awesome book.

LOL Musashi is a character on Vonneguts many books..
Hard to find Japanese author around here you know.
Except for well known ones like Murakami,Obe,Mishima. Tanizaki etc.etc.

Used to listen to the BBC's plays etc.

Who is who? One pic is of Franz Kafka and the other is Erik "El Terirble" Morales. You must know who Erik Morales is?

Yeah, man. Haha. I realized my mistake and meant to tag you but I tagged myself like an idiot. It was an off day. Haha.

I read it when it initially came out. I think that was 1996 or so. I really didn't know what to make of it at the time but I read it again in 2012 and it was different. It's a massive book, so many characters and plotlines. Worth a read though.
