Which theme is best reflected in this excerpt from Franz Kafka's The Metamorphosis? Because of his injuries, Gregor had lost much of his mobility--probably permanently. He had been reduced to the condition of an ancient
Invalid and it took him long, long minutes to crawl across his room-crawling over the ceiling was out of the question-but this
deterioration in his condition was fully in his opinion) made up for by the door to the living room being left open every evening.
He got into the habit of closely watching it for one or two hours before it was opened and then, lying in the darkness of his room where he
could not be seen from the living room, he could watch the family in the light of the dinner table and listen to their conversation-with
everyone's permission, in a way, and thus quite differently from before.
CA
isolation
B. persecution
C betrayal
D.
freedom
E
bitterness

The correct answer is A. Isolation

Explanation:

In novels such as The Metamorphosis by Franz Kafka, a theme is an idea expressed through different elements such as characters, events, or settings.

In the excerpt, the main theme is the isolation, this can be seen in the events described by the narrator because the main character Gregor is isolated in his room and unable to access the living room or any other space in the house. This can be seen in "He had been reduced to the condition of an ancient invalid and it took him long, long minutes to crawl across his room". This theme is also expressed in the fact the door of Gregor's room is not always opened and even when it is opened he can only watch the family but not join it "lying...where he could not be seen from the living room, he could watch the family in the light of the dinner table".
