Who Are Outsiders Or Misunderstood?

415 Words2 Pages
Are outsiders simply those who are misjudged or misunderstood? I think that outsiders are just misunderstood, but they can also be misjudged depending on the scenario. Gregor, from the story The Metamorphosis by Franz Kafka is a prime example of an outsider, who is both misjudged and misunderstood. An outsider can be a lot of things other than only misunderstood or misjudged, it all depends on who the person is and what they do. People will judge you as an outsider just from how you dress, what you look like, etc. In The Metamorphosis, Gregor Samsa is a traveling salesman who works to provide for his family. One morning though, Gregor wakes up as a massive beetle type insect. The bug can no longer talk, and can barely even get out of bed.
