Kafka recomendations

I m thinking about reading a book from Kafka.

From what I know it can be an heavy reading, so I m looking for suggestions on what should I read first.

I loove metamorphosis. It's hilarious and short.

If you want something even more relatable the trial would fit pretty well. That does depend in your upbringing a bit and of course your sense of humour etc
- Second this, Metamorphosis is a good quick read and was also my introduction to Kafka.
Der Prozess/The Trial is one of the better ones in my opinion. Really captures the essence of Kafka. Of course, it is also one of his longer works.
