Story
München, Anfang der 1990er-Jahre. Eine tote Frau wird gefunden - eine Prostituierte, wie es zunächst scheint. Diese entpuppt sich bei genauerem Hinsehen jedoch als Transvestit und außerdem als eine bekannte Persönlichkeit der Stadt. Eine heikle Situation für die Mordkommission, denn in den Fall ist offenbar jede Menge Prominenz verwickelt. Hatte man die Ermittlung zuerst auf Julia Durant abgewälzt, die Neue in einer von Männern beherrschten Abteilung, möchte man ihr den Fall nun wieder wegnehmen. Doch das lässt sie nicht mit sich machen.

Story
The story begins with a traveling salesman, Gregor Samsa, waking to find himself transformed (metamorphosed) into a large, monstrous insect-like creature. The cause of Gregor's transformation is never revealed, and Kafka himself never gave an explanation. The rest of Kafka's novella deals with Gregor's attempts to adjust to his new condition as he deals with being burdensome to his parents and sister, who are repulsed by the horrible, verminous creature Gregor has become.

ある朝夢から目覚めると、毒虫になっていた。突然虫になってしまった男と、その家族の生活という日常。あまりにも非日常的な出来事には、説明も何もない。ただ、【突然虫になってしまった】事実があるのみである。 「この子は虫じゃない。私達の家族だもの。」 そんなこと、現実では有り得ない。目の前に居るのは、どう見ても毒虫である。ただ、それだけ。家族を養えず、母親を気絶させ、下宿人を追い出そうとする、そんな虫が、家族である訳がない――。20世紀を代表する不条理小説として、現代でも必読書に挙げられることの多いカフカの「変身」。本作では実力派の朗読家が、非日常の日常を、淡々と冷ややかに読み上げる。人間のエゴや弱さを鋭く突く、問題作。
