Which theme is best reflected in this excerpt from Franz Kafka's The Metamorphosis? Because of his injuries, Gregor had lost much of his mobility—probably permanently. He had been reduced to the condition of an ancient invalid and it took him long, long minutes to crawl across his room—crawling over the ceiling was out of the question—but this deterioration in his condition was fully (in his opinion) made up for by the door to the living room being left open every evening. He got into the habit of closely watching it for one or two hours before it was opened and then, lying in the darkness of his room where he could not be seen from the living room, he could watch the family in the light of the dinner table and listen to their conversation—with everyone's permission, in a way, and thus quite differently from before. A. isolation B. persecution C. betrayal D. freedom E. bitterness

A). Isolation.

Explanation:

The theme or the 'underlying message' that Franz  Kafka discusses in the given excerpt would be 'isolation' as it discusses the pain and suffering that Gregor suffers after being transformed into a cockroach. He 'lost his mobility' and 'reduced to the condition of an ancient invalid.' He was completely alone and shattered. He is broken completely and had no one to talk to. He was deteriorated to such a miserable condition that it took him too long to crawl his room. He was lying in utter darkness with no one to share his thoughts and he could only listen to the conversations of his family at the dinner table from a distance. Thus, these situations clearly display that Gregor was completely isolated and broken and that is the central idea that Kafka is conveying. Thus, option A is the correct answer.
