Translated by PEN translation award-winner Joachim Neugroschel, The Metamorphosis, In the Penal Colony, and Other Stories has garnered critical acclaim and is widely recognized as the preeminent English-language anthology of Kafka's stories.

Neugroschel's translation of Kafka's work has made this controversial and monumental writing accessible to a whole new generation. This classic collection of forty-one great short works--including such timeless pieces of modern fiction as "The Judgment" and "The Stoker"--now includes two new stories, "First Sorrow" and "The Hunger Artist."
