Books
One of the great epics of Western literature, Homer's 'Odyssey' covers the events after the Trojan War as Odysseus travels home, encountering many strange monsters and creatures along the way. Featuring numerous figures of ancient Greek mythology, Homer's epic poem is one of the world's oldest surviving literary works and preserves various aspects of ancient Greek beliefs and culture for the modern reader. From fearsome giants to a cunning sorceress, Odysseus must confront peril after peril, all the while wondering if the path of his fate ever leads homeward, and if his wife Penelope and son Telemachus remain safe.
