Metamorphosis
Description de l’éditeur
Metamorphosis is a biological process by which an animal physically develops after birth or hatching, involving a conspicuous and relatively abrupt change in the animal's body structure through cell growth and differentiation. Some insects, amphibians, molluscs, crustaceans, Cnidarians, echinoderms and tunicates undergo metamorphosis, which is usually accompanied by a change of habitat or behavior.
Scientific usage of the term is exclusive, and is not applied to general aspects of cell growth, including rapid growth spurts. References to "metamorphosis" in mammals are imprecise and only colloquial, but historically idealist ideas of transformation and monadology, as in Goethe's Metamorphosis of Plants, influenced the development of ideas of evolution.

Metamorphosis
I just have to say that this metamorphosis is so disturbing but at the same time full of reality. One cannot know for sure whether the ending is the best for the story itself. I mean... what would one do in this situation right?
Truly astonishing
The emotion this book gives is just unmatched, the way it makes you think, it’s just pure genius.
