An adaptation like this begs for a metaphor. My first reaction was to make it musical
I have to admit, my brain mis-parsed this on first reading as "make it a musical". As in, the best way to adapt this story would be to do just that. Which is one of those ideas that is so crazy that it actually might work. After all, the original uses music to strong effect throughout, and even has one episode which is, explicitly, a sung overture.
