I really enjoyed this, it was a little difficult to get into at first but it was completely worth it. I particularly enjoyed Pygmalion and the ivory statue. I loved the whole idea of how everything changes nothing stays in its original form!!
These poems are fascinating. Ovid takes an almost encyclopedic knowledge of myth and both Greek and a Latin literature and weaves these deeply personal poems: https://youtu.be/RWx-i0kfMuI

Filled with familiar stories and, of course, the transformation of characters(often because of Hera being angry at Zeus). My favourite transformation is probably that of Hermaphroditus. The only reason I wouldn't give it 5 stars is my fault. The stories are so interwoven and I am not an expert on all classical figures so I often got lost, so the seamless transitions were not so seamless to me.
