Essay / Changes in the Minotaur over time - 981
The Minotaur is depicted as a creature with the head of a bull and the body of a man. It's easy to understand why people are afraid to make eye contact with the Minotaur since just its gaze is enough to kill. After escaping the labyrinth, the Minotaur, despite its frightening appearance, is not a violent creature. The Minotaur who was locked in the labyrinth and the Minotaur who escaped from it share several similarities such as: the need for love and the inability to speak properly, but also have a number of differences such as: perceiving the value of human life and works.The Minotaur locked in the maze is a dirty creature who intends to kill anyone in the maze. Any Athenians sent into the labyrinth had virtually no chance of emerging alive.

The Minotaur in general is very useful with his hands as he can cook, sew, and repair cars better than the average human. We can generalize, the Minotaur must have acquired stable mechanical hands by tearing apart the poor Athenians (O'Grady Par.8). To put it briefly, the Minotaur was a violent creature, but transformed into a gentle creature longing to be included. and desire for privacy. The Minotaur still seems to be a socially inept creature and is simply tolerated by others around him. At the end of the novel The Minotaur Takes a Smoke Break, the author leaves us with the impression that people change all the time and that it is important for people to look at others from all angles.
