MetaMorphosis by Illustrated & Edited E-Kitap Projesi, 2013 From Original Translated "1916 version"

The Metamorphosis (in German, Die Verwandlung, “The Transformation”) is a novel by Franz Kafka, arguably the most famous of his works. Gregor Samsa, a traveling salesman, wakes up in his bed to find himself transformed into a large insect. He looks around his room, which appears normal, and decides to go back to sleep to forget about what has happened...

So, It has been cited as one of the seminal works of fiction of the 20th century and is studied in colleges and universities across the Western world. The story begins with a traveling salesman, Gregor Samsa, waking to find himself transformed (metamorphosed) into a large, monstrous insect-like creature. The cause of Samsa's transformation is never revealed, and Kafka never did give an explanation. The rest of Kafka's novella deals with Gregor's attempts to adjust to his new condition as he deals with being burdensome to his parents and sister..
