Ovid, Metamorphoses

Metamorphoses by Ovid was a little confusing to read because of its length and the way the story is worded. It is the creation story of how earth, man, and the world we live in today was made from nature. It is very descriptive and scientific that anyone in this modern day can relate to it and believe it. It doesn't talk about any God but only about nature. It also talks about a flood story where Jove gets angry and causes a flood because of what lycaon did. Unlike Noah's story and the Epic of Gilgamesh, the flood is not the main theme of this story. Apart from the creation and the flood, it was hard to follow the rest of the story. From "The Transformation of Daphne into a Lawrel" it was as if the story lost its main focuse.
