Description



Book Synopsis



Chiltern creates the most beautiful editions of the World's finest literature. Your favorite classic titles in a way you have never seen them before: the tactile layers, fine details and beautiful colors of these remarkable covers make these books feel extra special and look striking on any shelf.

This stunning edition of The Odyssey, Homer's great epic, one of the oldest surviving works of literature, describes the many adventures of Odysseus the Greek hero, as he strives over many years to return to his home island of Ithaca after the Trojan War. On Ithaca he will defeat the suitors camped in his palace and reunite with his loyal wife, Penelope.

The setting of The Odyssey spans the Mediterranean and includes mythical realms such as the Cyclopes' island, the land of the Lotus Eaters, and the underworld. The poem is not only an adventurous tale but also a reflection on the complexities of human nature, loyalty, and the consequences of one's actions. His adventures, his endurance, his love for his wife and son have the same power to move and inspire readers today as they did in Archaic Greece, 2800 years ago. This beautiful edition is translated by Alexander Pope.
