More like tedium I'm afraid.

Oh that's a shame. Have you tried it in english, it's a great story?

[Madeleine]

No, sadly books I had to read at school for study tended to put me off a re-read, though I did read some of my English A Level books again, eventually!

I will admit, I don’t love Metamorphosis either. I appreciate that it deserves its place as a classic, I’m glad I read it, but the thought of reading it again is not very exciting 😅. If you haven’t read it yet though @Angury, it is really interesting as a portrayal of a psychological state…

 

And @lunababymoonchild you’re right that there are some overlapping themes, but The Yellow Wallpaper has a different tone to it (Victorian gothic) and I think you’d really like it!

Read both Yellow Wallpaper and Metamorphosis. It was @itsmeagain who made the comparison to claim the mention
