Metamorphosis, symbolism

    By reading metamorphosis I've come to notice tons and tons of symbolism. One thing I found particularly interesting is the symbolism of Gregors is the furniture contained in his room. When Gregor becomes this vermin and so called nuisance to his family, his father removes all the furniture and just personal stuff in his room (pg.17). To me this means his father has come to the realization he's never goanna change back, come back to being human. His family has lost all hope and faith in him. His furniture signifies his past and his sense of humanity... its now been officially taken from him.
