About the book “The Golden Age”:

To the book:

Jupiter is the most powerful of the Roman gods, but even he is no match for the power of love. So he transforms himself into a snow-white bull in order to abduct the beautiful Europa. The famous story comes from Ovid's Metamorphoses. His tales of transformation are among the most influential stories in world literature. Heinz Janisch has now retold 17 selected myths for children for the first time. Translated with DeepL.com (free version)
