Metamorphosis - Part 2

I thought that the Greg's metamorphosis was just a dream or something like that. How can a family do nothing about his transformation?

Sorry, this time I forgot to take a picture inside the bus :(

I really don't know in which year the book happens, but the family was afraid of his transformation and they didn't nothing about. Where's the scientists? Where's the doctors? Police? There's a human-size insect inside their house and they just pretend that Greg will be back. I suspect that this isn't the point of this book, I know there's more. I think that the point of this book is the family bound around the main character. The way Greg thinks and speaks with himself about how much he wants to work and make his family stable again, how his sister is helping him in someway, how lucid he is, even being a giant insect, is probably the message that Franz Kafka wants to leave.

I already read 66% of the book and the final of the last chapter, Greg's father hit he with apples and Greg is with apple attached to him.

Books or Audio books? Both.

If you're following me, you know that this blog is a way that I'm using to improve my English writing skills. This was the fun way that I found to study a language and not get boring doing it. But, I need to improve the other skills, listening and speaking. Today, I'll write about a method to improve your listening skills. Mostly of the people say that read a book and listen to a podcast are a great way to improve your listening skills. They are right. However, generally podcasts are a casual conversation, the people that record it doesn't think about pronunciation, they've a limited vocabulary (as I do) and sometimes the accent isn't easy to understand. I know that are proper podcasts for English students, but IMO they aren't funny or even interesting. It was for those reasons that I tried to find something that I could combine read and listen in a fun way. This year I discovered the Audio books, I already know that they existed but it never interest
