Description

The OdysseyComposed at the rosy fingered dawn of world literature almost three millennia ago, The Odyssey is a poem about violence and the aftermath of war; about wealth, poverty and power; about marriage and family; about travelers, hospitality, and the yearning for home. This fresh, authoritative translation captures the beauty of this ancient poem as well as the drama of its narrative. Its characters are unforgettable, none more so than the "complicated" hero

Composed at the rosy-fingered dawn of world literature almost three millennia ago, The Odyssey is a poem about violence and the aftermath of war; about wealth, poverty and power; about marriage and family; about travelers, hospitality, and the yearning for home.

This fresh, authoritative translation captures the beauty of this ancient poem as well as the drama of its narrative. Its characters are unforgettable, none more so than the "complicated" hero himself, a man of many disguises, many tricks, and many moods, who emerges in this version as a more fully rounded human being than ever before.

Written in iambic pentameter verse and a vivid, contemporary idiom, Emily Wilson's Odyssey sings with a voice that echoes Homer's music; matching the number of lines in the Greek original, the poem sails along at Homer's swift, smooth pace.

A fascinating, informative introduction explores the Bronze Age milieu that produced the epic, the poem's major themes, the controversies about its origins, and the unparalleled scope of its impact and influence. Maps drawn especially for this volume, a pronunciation glossary, and extensive notes and summaries of each book make this is an Odyssey that will be treasured by a new generation of readers.

Nice quality bag, very stylish
Color: Mk Signature/Vanilla/Acorn, Color: Mk Signature/Vanilla/Acorn
This Michael Kors small duffle crossbody is a cute play on a travel bag. From the adjustable strap that mimics a heavy duty duffle bag to the outer pocket that can hold little what-nots, and the roomy innermost part of it, this bag is very stylish. The material is heavy duty, yet high quality. It doesn’t feel like it is cheap or so delicate it won’t last long with care, or scuff or scratch easily. The material, canvas, hardware, handles, and straps are high quality, and very rich in color. The bag has enough storage capacity allows for my phone,, cosmetics, keys, wallet, and AirPods, with some room left over. The zippers don’t catch or appear they will break easily. I’ve been able easily open and close the bag and pockets with no issues. Overall, this bag is great quality and very stylish. The color goes great with neutral tones and all black. I enjoy carrying with while dressed up or down. Very happy with this bag.
