Synopsis
Trouble is brewing at the home of the hero Ulysses, who has spent years fighting in the Troyan Wars and is now captive of the beautiful nymph Capypso. Hordes of suitors to his wife have invaded the family house, and Ulysses's son Telemachus sets out to find his father. Freed from the clutches of Calypso after the intervention of Jupiter, Ulysses begins his epic return journey.
The timeless themes of the Odyssey - survival, courage, loyalty and hospitality - have resonated with readers through the ages, making it the most enduring classic in western civilization. This beautifully presented of Homer's Greek epic sets Alexander Pope's classic 1726's translation alongside images derived from John Flaxman's famous neoclassical dessigns.
