About this audiobook
The epic journey of a man desperate to find his way home.
After ten years of brutal war against Troy, the great hero Odysseus is lost. While his fellow Greeks have long since returned, he is nowhere to be found. Believed by many to be dead, he is trapped on the remote island of the nymph Calypso, who offers him immortality but cannot ease his longing for home.
Meanwhile, in his palace on the rocky island of Ithaca, a different battle rages. Suitors, vying for the hand of his presumed widow, Penelope, have overrun his home, consuming his wealth and threatening his son, Telemachus. Penelope, a monument of cunning and fidelity, holds them off, but her strength is waning.
His journey is a mythic tapestry of monsters and magic, of divine wrath and favor. From the terrifying Cyclops Polyphemus to the enchanting sorceress Circe, from the seductive song of the Sirens to the terrors of Scylla and Charybdis, Odysseus must use every ounce of his famed intelligence and courage to survive.
But The Odyssey is more than an adventure. It is a profound story of love, loyalty, and the relentless human spirit. It is a tale of a son searching for his father, a wife waiting for her husband, and a king fighting to reclaim his rightful place.
