short stories

This week we were supposed to read "The Metamorphosis," "Helbling's Story," and "Bartleby the Scrivener." My favorite short story out of these three was … . It is about this man, named Gregor who is just as average as everyone else around him and living his daily life every day but then he turns into a beetle one morning once he woke up. It was interesting to me that Gregor didn’t really care or notice that he had turned into a beetle. It was also fascinating to see how Gregor lived his every day live trying to be normal and to fit in with every other average person around him while living as a beetle. Gregor tried to live as a normal human being and instead of noticing that he was a beetle he tried to stay normal and do things he would have if he was a human, such as providing for his household. With this being said, the other two short stories that we read were also having a male person living his own life and doing what he wants to do and just being average.
