Description
The Return from Troy by Lindsay Clarke brings ancient myth to life with passion and humour. Odysseus's journey is one of trauma, self-discovery, and ultimately, homecoming. After unleashing destruction upon the people of Troy, Odysseus feels unworthy of return. He embarks on an epic quest to find his way back to Ithaca, where his wife and son await, but are besieged by rivals who believe him dead. This retelling blends mythic archaism with modern psychodrama and satire. A vivid and engaging story that explores the complexities of heroism and the human heart.
