Me! i am only just a little confused. i have to write an essay on the novel story metamorphosis, and i am just a little confused. can you me out with one thing, what things did gregor did not do in the story. this is a little excerpt from what my teacher has told me to do: each of the body paragraphs should deal with one thing that gregor should do differently if he had the chance. you must give evidence from the story that gregor did not do these things as you have seen him in the novel. explain why a change in his ideas and actions would have made a difference in his life.
