About this book
The second of Homer’s epics, The Odyssey follows Odysseus’ arduous journey home from the Trojan War. Battling tempests, mythical creatures, and the will of the gods, he must rely on wit and resolve to reclaim his place and reunite with his family. Through the image of Odysseus’s wave-battered ship, Homer meditates on what gives people the strength to persevere. This bilingual edition presents the original text side-by-side with a translation.
