The story is about Gregor Samsa, a workaholic, who wakes up one night to realize that he has transformed into an insect. The rest of the setting remains realistic, and Gregor's greatest worry is how his family is going to live without his income. The hardest part of the entire situation was not the fact that he was no longer human but the estrangement from his family, which in the end leads to his death. The magical element in this story is obvious, as humans do not just randomly turn into insects.
