This document provides an agenda for discussing Franz Kafka's short story "Metamorphosis". It includes a summary of Chapter 2, which describes Gregor Samsa's increasing loneliness after his transformation and his sister Grete's compassionate visit. Potential discussion questions are posed about Grete's character development, the symbolic meaning of a picture Gregor refuses to part with, and how psychoanalytic theory could explain Gregor's lingering guilt. Themes of alienation, father-son antagonism, escapism, isolation, self-sacrifice, and betrayal are highlighted. Students are assigned to read Chapter 3 and post a discussion response.
