Metamorphosis
In the novel, "Metamorphosis", by Franz Kafka, The sister of the main character (Grete) has matured drastically throughout the novel. She has changed from the time that her brother (Gregor) transformed into a vermin. By her brother going through this transformation, she matures from the average 17-year-old teenager, to a responsible, young woman. These changes occur through the process of time. Early in the novel, Grete discovers that her brother (Gregor) has transformed into a vermin. At first she, and her mother and father were skeptical about the entire situation. Actually, none of them believe it until they finally realize that this vermin, is a part of their family. Acceptance is the one thing that distin
The mother is weak and is unable to mentally grasp the fact that her son has been transformed and the very sight of him, makes her even more sick. He is trapped within his thoughts, because he has to accept the fact that Gregor is the only one working and is backbone of the household and not himself. Grete finds her inner-self and comes out of her shell, and recognizes her beauty. She has the unconditional love for her brother that forces her to mature whether she notices it or not. Not only did Grete mature, the whole family had to mature even the slightest. So the mother and father's negative energy gets negatively reflected upon Gregor. Another thing that makes her bond with her brother is her music. Even though she doesn't know it, but she is slowly maturing by actually caring for her brother when he is in need. That is the single most thing that distinguishes her and her brother, from their parents. Samsa, (the father) states, "Now thanks be to God" which can be interpreted as thank goodness. This also is a step up from her previous level of maturation. Grete starts working as a salesgirl. She loves to play the violin, which makes her feel at her best.
