Explanation:

In literature, the "absurd" represents actions that seem lacking in meaning or truth, and that a reader might find inexplicable. This is a concept that is prevalent in Kafka's work. Absurd literature, moreover, can seem to lack congruence or "sense." It also explores existencialist or nihilist subjects. In this case, one example of the absurd in The Metamorphosis is the fact that Gregor suddenly and inexplicably transforms into a bug.
