Stumbled on to this book at the library and immediately grabbed it based on my love for Moth Smoke. This deceptively slim book was more like a fable than a "regular" novel and it seems incredibly timely considering the state of affairs in the world right now. Comparisons to Kafka seem inevitable and I would say in this book the protagonist's sense of alienation is more grounded in reality than in Metamorphosis.
