Description

Odysseus's journey home is fraught with peril as he faces the wrath of Poseidon and navigates treacherous seas.

Twenty years after the Trojan war, Odysseus sets out to reclaim his rightful place in Ithaca, but the gods have other plans for him. With the fate of his marriage to Penelope hanging in the balance, Odysseus must confront a series of challenges that will test his courage and cunning.

This epic retelling of Homer's Odyssey brings the ancient Greek legend into the modern world, with Simon Armitage's masterful translation capturing the timeless essence of the original tale.
