Metamorphosis
Kafka has written a successful piece in the view point of a abnormal creature after he is morphed to a human. He uses a mixture of long sentences to describe the setting in a detailed way. However he does use some simple syntax to create suspense and drama. Another successful technique i have noticed is his use of negative construction which helps to summarize his mood and his feelings at the present scenario. Next, he uses the orginal idiolect used back then and uses phrases that we don't understand. This is what makes it such a beautiful piece it is because even when you read it you don't have a clue on what the guy is talking about. However you slightly understand what he means because he tells the story in a relaxed way. He say's it like it's normal for this to happen. Ipersonally hate it and i think it was a utter waste of my time i could of read Shadow Wave which just came out, written by the amazing Robert Munchmore and unfortunately it's James Adam's last adventure :-))
