Llamas 1 Estefania Llamas CWL 100-01 Intro to World Lit. Professor Cooper M/W 9:30-10:45 am Class # 3837, Section 1 The Fate of the Cockroach Al-Hakim’s Fate of the Cockroach was first published in 1966. In my opinion, Hakim intended to portray humans as arrogant and self-centered. This play is a form of absurdist drama because it does not demonstrate some ideal of perfection, instead it demonstrates that people by nature are self-centered and power plays a vital role in this play.

The story by Franz Kafka is one that captivates your attention just from its title “The Metamorphosis.” It is centered on the major character Gregor’s transformation from human to cockroach. Kafka delivers this story through an anonymous narrator. The narrator has a couple of similar and different roles from Gregor that makes him his own special character. One of the first things that jump at you as you’re reading the story is the fact that that narrator of the story is not Gregor Samsa. Due to
