Rachel Askenazi argues that “through their novels The Metamorphosis and The Plague, Franz Kafka and Albert Camus display the connection between capitalism, alienation, and love.” Ultimately, the protagonists realize that love and human connection can bring worth and meaning to existence. Rachel wrote this essay for Christina Bogdanou’s First Year Seminar class, The Map of the Human Heart, fall 2014.
