SUBJECT TO AVAILABILITY

Odysseus

By Ken Catran About

Odysseus’ voyages are known throughout the land as poets recite dangerous and heroic adventures of battles with mighty nine-headed monsters. But what really happened?
Humorous and insightful, this story reveals Odysseus as an undoubtedly ruthless character, an engaging villain and a born survivor.

Told by Odysseus himself, we discover the real stories of the country of the Lotus Eaters, the Cyclops, Circe and her magic island, and the descent into the Underworld. From the fall of Troy to his fight with his wife Penelope’sinsolent suitors, we come to understand why Odysseus regrets his decision to risk the wrath of Ocean-Poseidon.
