The word vermin is used for wild animals which are believed to be harmful to crops or which carry disease, but metaphorically can be used to depict despicable people or people causing problems for the rest of society. Therefore, use of this word suggests that Gregor Samsa will despicable and a problem for society (in this case, he is a problem to his family). Critics have argued about the meaning of “The Metamorphosis” written by Franz Kafka, but many believe that the Grete, Gregor’s sister, is the central character and that Gregor’s existence has driven all attention from her and became harmful for her future and future of her parents. As Volker Drüke suggests, Grete is the one that actually experiences metamorphosis – she has matured as a result of the new family circumstances and assumed responsibility. She becomes a woman and after her brother’s death, the parents also notice that she “who was getting more animated all the time, had blossomed […] into a beautiful and voluptuous young woman”, and want to look for a partner for her.

Reread lines 43 – 58. How has the narrator’s relationship with her husband changed? Support you answer with explicit textual evi
frutty [35]
I don't know which edition you're referring to. I suppose the lines 43-58 are actually the third paragraph. So, here's the answer:

The narrator's relationship with her husband has changed because of a supernatural influence that she can't exactly explain or fathom. She doesn't really know what happened, when, or why, but at night her husband was not the same person she married. "It’s the moon’s fault, and the blood. It was in his father’s blood," she reasons. Her husband is alienated because of this, and somehow she feels that they don't belong together anymore. He goes out to find those who are like him. "Something comes over the one that’s got the curse in his blood, they say, and he gets up because he can’t sleep, and goes out into the glaring sun, and goes off all alone — drawn to find those like him."
