Samsa's last name is the author's in substitution cipher form. If the S's are replaced with K's, and the M with an F, you get Kafka. Gregor Samsa had to come to terms with the realization that he was no longer human and his life had and would change dramatically. His family was now no longer a part of him and he had to move on and accept that not only his change but the change that his family had to go through also. It was not him that had the only transition, he got to do for himself and his family had to begin supporting themselves.

Thank Liz L. For that.

NOT MORE BARCODES!!!
