Description

Seventeen of Ovid’s enduring stories stunningly illustrated. Known the world over, Ovid’s canonical work has spanned centuries, never losing its relevance. Retold by award-winning Austrian author Heinz Janisch with transcendent illustrations by Ana Sender, this collection includes some of Ovid’s most popular and potent stories—sure to reach new hearts and minds. From The Story of the Origin of the World to Midas, Pan, Europa, Apollo, Daphne, Narcissus, Echo, and Fama, the goddess of rumor and stories, we see the multifaceted world of Ovid’s Metamorphoses. These tales about gods, goddesses, humans, nymphs and other beings remind us that transformation and the power of story is never ending.
