| I've never hated the cover of something more. |
In college I had to read "The Metamorphosis" at least twice, but my last semester in school I took a class called Modern Fiction. For this class I wrote my smaller, minor paper about this short story, and my only memory is that I had a separate point about the ending that no one had brought up in class, and so I stayed behind to ask my professor about it, and he got mad at me for not actually talking about it in class, and it was the smartest and dumbest I've ever felt. (Edit: I actually found the paper on my computer. It was only five pages long, which is
insane for a 400-level class, and I didn't use the point I brought up to my professor. What a waste.) Anyway, this is the first short story instead of a novel we're getting into, so let's get on with it!
