the correct answer is: reveal gregor as an untidy individual.

in metamorphosis by franz kafka, gregor samsa is the main character, who one day wakes up as a bug, and the attitude he takes upon his transformation forces him to go deeper on his existence and the new features of his body.

in this excerpt the writer mentions a table full of collection textile samples, which gives us a hint about gregor being messy. later on the book we discover how he is a really untidy individual.

answer: age of the protagonists.

dubliners is a collection of fifteen short stories by james joyce, published in 1914. they tell the stories of the irish middle class in and around dublin in the early years of the 20th century.

joyce divides the collection into three sections dealing with childhood, adolescence and maturity. therefore, one pattern he uses to organize his stories is the age of the protagonists. the initial stories deal with children, and as the stories continue, they focus on progressively older people.
