Description

The Odyssey is an epic poem written by Homer near the end of the 8th century, B.C. and is considered to be one of the oldest pieces of western literature. Still heavily used in schools because of its unique literary and historical value, the poems follow the Greek hero Odysseus as he journeys home after the ten-year Trojan War. During his ten-year journey home, Odysseus encounters many obstacles including adverse weather, mythical beasts, and angry gods. Many Scholars believe the Odyssey was originally composed in an oral tradition, intended to be heard, not read, making this epic classic a must have for audiobook listeners. This edition follows the poetic Alexander Pope translation.
