question 7 of 10
what theme common to kafkas time period was featured in the
metamorphosis as well as in many other novels and films of the
era?

a. the boredom that results from working a meaningless job

b. the happiness associated with living with your family

c. the chance that you could wake up one morning and find yourself
transformed into a bug

d. the opportunity to travel and see the world

Explanation:

In Kafka's time (early 20th century), themes of alienation, especially from meaningless work, were common. "The Metamorphosis" reflects Gregor's alienation from his job. Option A matches this theme. Option B is incorrect as the family dynamic in the story is strained, not happy. Option C is the plot device, not a common era theme. Option D is unrelated to the era's themes or the story.

Answer:

A. The boredom that results from working a meaningless job
