Notes
Description
from international collectors library "The Odyssey was already an ancient and revered classic to the Athenians of the 6th century B.C., and it was recited in full together with the Iliad, at a public festival held every four years. ... The version now offered by the International Collectors Library is the work of Robert Fitzgerald, who has translated other Greek classics and published three books of his own poetry. His Odyssey, ... combines a fidelity to the Greek original and a lucid contemporaneity. And Homer is truly contemporaneous - for he is blessed with the rare gift of an ever-youthful heart that makes for timelessness. ... His Odysseus - whom you now meet - will always remain among the towering characters of legendary fiction."
