Obviously. The real question is if there's any value to reading the text with this understanding in mind.

who knows
or should I say
who cares
Most of Kafka's work is at least semi-autobiographical, The Judgement - very overtly
Every good literature is semi-autobiographical
>>9037182
It is, but it's not the only thing he's doing or the only interpretation you should stick to. Kafka is always doing many different things at the same time.

Explain what else he is doing?
>>9039008
He is mocking you, ya dingus.

great story
One morning, as Gregor Samsa was waking up from anxious dreams, he discovered that in bed he had been changed into a monstrous Turk.
All of his work is based on the emotional abuse he suffered from his father.
