Synopsis

The Golden Ass – Apuleius’ Magical Tale of Transformation, Temptation, and Redemption 
The only Latin novel to survive in its entirety, The Golden Ass (also known as Metamorphoses) by Apuleius is a wild, witty, and deeply human journey through the ancient world. It tells the story of Lucius, a curious young man who dabbles in magic and is accidentally transformed into a donkey—setting off a series of strange, humorous, and often erotic adventures. 
Blending elements of comedy, fantasy, and spiritual allegory, this richly layered novel explores themes of identity, desire, and enlightenment. Along the way, it offers a vivid portrait of Roman society and culminates in a powerful tale of salvation and the goddess Isis. 
A bold and unforgettable classic that’s as entertaining as it is profound.
