Description
This epic and timeless tale recounts the adventures of Odysseus as he journeyed home to Ithaca after the fall of Troy.
The story of Odysseus’ perilous journey home after the fall of Troy relates allegorical tales of goddesses and sirens, capture and escape, and manoeuvring between Scylla and Charybdis. After ten years of travel, Odysseus finally reaches Ithaca to find his family in turmoil. The saga of his efforts to make things right is one of the oldest works of Western literature and still offers powerful lessons for modern times.
With full-colour page edges and a heat-burnished cover with foil stamping, this edition of The Odyssey is a stylish addition to your bookshelf.

About the Author
Homer is a legendary ancient Greek poet, traditionally said to be the author of the two great epics of Greek history: the Iliad and the Odyssey. Both books are considered landmarks in human literature, and Homer is therefore often cited as the starting point of Western literary and historical tradition. Samuel Butler (1835–1902) was an English novelist, translator, and artist. He is best known for his novel The Way of All Flesh and his translations of Homer’s Iliad and Odyssey.
