Friday 4/19

Journal:  Consider the the "meal" that Grete prepares for Gregor:

"There were half rotted vegetables, bones from the evening meal that were coated with a congealed white sauce, a few raisins and almonds; a piece of cheese that Gregor had declared to be inedible two days ago; a stale piece of bread, a piece of bread with butter smeared on it, and another piece of bread with butter and salt smeared on it."   **What do these "gruesome" details relate about Grete's character?  About Gregor's physical and mental state?  Explain.

1.  Activity:  From Gregor's point of view, describe how he feels as he hides under the couch.
