Description



Book Synopsis



Seven essential life lessons from The Odyssey--a timeless story of grit, resilience, and staying true to your purpose.

Who are you? Who do you want to become? How do you treat others, and what truly matters? The Odyssey Mindset transforms the ancient wisdom of Homer's epic into a practical, reassuring toolkit for modern life. Each of the seven lessons pairs a moment from Odysseus's journey with clear, relatable insights and actionable strategies you can use every day.

Drawing on her unique expertise as both an Oxford-trained classicist and a clinical psychologist, Dr. Sam Akbar guides readers through Odysseus's voyage from Troy to Ithaca--and the deeper, psychological journey toward self-knowledge that underpins it.

Wherever you find yourself on your own path, The Odyssey Mindset offers timeless guidance to help you face challenges, stay the course, and move toward the life you want.
