Transfigurations-Golden Donkey

I would like to caress friendly ears with a few pleasant whispers by weaving different stories together; Unless, of course, you are too lazy to look at the Egyptian papyrus that I wrote with that pointed reed from the Nile. You will be amazed at how people's forms and destinies transform into other appearances and become their original form by being woven together. So let's get started.

Metamorphoses is the work of Lucius Apuleius, one of the famous names of Latin literature, who writes with haste, enthusiasm and desire, by stringing together interesting stories one after the other, without losing interest in his readers, by exchanging mutual emotions. It is a story classic consisting of 11 books, which has been translated hundreds of times in Western literature, has inspired many works of art, and has provided material for magnificent works of visual arts.

It presents the striking aspects of the daily lives of ordinary people living in the provinces of the Roman Empire in a sarcastic and entertaining way. The mysterious nature of humanity is revealed through the eyes of a person who was turned into a donkey as a result of a wrong spell. This cute donkey, who evaluates human life, morality, weaknesses and virtues like a moral philosopher, thinks, speaks, rejoices and gets angry, completely draws the reader into his own world with the stories he has experienced.
