About This Book

El poema reúne una serie de relatos míticos unidos por transformaciones en las que dioses, humanos y criaturas experimentan cambios físicos. Recorre la cosmogonía, las edades de la humanidad, las intervenciones divinas, el amor y la venganza, y numerosas metamorfosis que ilustran causas y consecuencias del deseo, la soberbia y el dolor. La estructura encadena episodios a lo largo de los libros mediante transiciones que integran las fábulas en un flujo narrativo continuo. Las imágenes combinan descripciones vivas, simbolismo mítico y figuras alegóricas para presentar el cambio como fuerza tanto creadora como destructora.
