"Les Métamorphoses sont composées au début de l'ère chrétienne par le poète latin Ovide, juste avant sa relégation sur les rives de la mer Noire. Ce recueil est constitué d'une multitude de courts récits inspirés des mythologies, des épopées et des tragédies grecques et romaines. Un livre-monde, tour à tour édifiant, galant et burlesque dont la voix inspirée de Michel Vuillermoz, sociétaire de la Comédie-Française, révèle l'esprit et les saveurs." Claude Colombini Frémeaux

4000 år efter at man i oldtidens Irak fortalte de første historier om kong Gilgamesh - helten, der jagede evigt liv - lever hans fortælling stadig videre. Det babylonske epos er et enestående eksempel på, at en fortælling kan brænde sig gennem tiden og forblive aktuel på tværs af årtusinder. "Gilgamesh" - hvis forfatter er ukendt - er et af verdenslitteraturens ældste hovedværker, og i dag bliver man stadig rørt af de oldgamle følelser, som eposset skildrer med poetisk præcision: kærlighed og sorg, rastløshed og dødsangst, venskab og vildskab.
