📖 April’s Book: Metamorphosis by Franz Kafka

For our May session, we’ll be reading Metamorphosis by Franz Kafka – a haunting and surreal classic that explores identity, alienation, and the human condition. This unforgettable novella follows Gregor Samsa, a traveling salesman who wakes up one morning to find himself transformed into a giant insect. Expect an evening of deep discussions, unsettling reflections, and plenty of theories as we unravel the layers of this dark and thought-provoking masterpiece!

How Our Book Club Works

💡 Step 1: Read the Book – Or as much as you can! If you don’t finish, you can still come along – but we do discuss the ending and you will hear some spoilers.

💬 Step 2: Get the Discussion Topics – A few days before, we’ll send questions and themes to think about. No tests, no homework – this is just a way to make discussions smoother and more fun by giving you the opportunity to reflect on some points beforehand.

🤝 Step 3: Come along – Whether you love sharing your thoughts or prefer to just listen, there’s no right or wrong way to join in. It’s all about good books, great discussions, and meeting like-minded people.

We can’t wait to read and connect with you! 📖✨
