The book "Birds" was written by the ancient Greek playwright Aristophanes and is considered one of his most famous works. This comedy tells the story of two Athenian citizens who decide to leave all the problems of the world and find a better life in the world of birds. They end up in the country of Ptachopulia, where birds rule and have their own society. The author uses humor and satire to criticize the political and social problems of his time, which makes this work a vivid example of ancient Greek comedy. "Birds" is not only a fun work, but also a remarkable example of the epoch-making and wild imagination of ancient Greek art.
