Entry # 23 Franz Kafka - The Metamorphosis 2

As I have said before, in the Metamorphosis, Kafka describes moments using very specific details giving his writing lots of visibility and realism. The only problem I noticed as I read was that at often times, his writing moves on too slow, and it can get somehow, a little boring. Sometimes, it got too specific and, if you’re ignorant as me, you might have a difficult time understanding what is happening. When I bumped into one of these situations, either being slow or difficult to understand, it helped me get distracted and carried away by anything.
The opposite effect was caused on me by a well known book called ‘100 anos de Soledad’. This book, in my opinion, moves really fast and it got a hold of my attention 99.9% of the time I spent reading it. This book uses quickness and exactitude to cause this effect on readers. It was great to read these two books at the same time because it helped me understand, a bit more in depth, how these two writers write.
