- It's hard to distinguish directly in "The Metamorphosis". We don't necessarily see Gregor in his "Ordinary World" but we do get told about his life; how he's a salesman and how he hates it and his boss. I feel like the story starts out with the "Call to Adventure", him waking up as a bug.
- I think one of the social issues being critiqued is that of social class. Gregor and his family are part of the working class, and it sounds as if they are in debt to the manager who seems to rule their lives by having that upper hand. "The Red Scare" is somewhat similar because before the invention of the t.v., Joseph McCarthy had control over a lot of American's lives by having the upper hand about American's view on Communism.
- A bug.
