anastasiyak 's review for:
Metamorphoses
by Ovid
read this book for a class. it’s very dense. i listened to it on audio which helped at first. but then there were so many characters and things happening i just couldn’t keep up.
it’s really interesting to see how things tie in with one another. ovid starts it with a creation story and also has a flood story in there.
also enjoyed the etymology stories that would describe short stories of how for example mulberries became red or the crow became black. they’re obviously not true but it’s interesting to read.
also saw a lot of ties to Shakespeare’s stories and characters. would be interested to read some of his stuff now having seen that. but also romeo and juliet existed way before shakespeare wrote about it.
