Product details

The greatest of all hero's journeys in a celebrated new translation. Muse, tell me of the man of many twists and turns. Kurt Steinmann's highly praised verse translation of the Odyssey brings some of the most famous episodes in world literature – the captivity by the Cyclops Polyphemus, the seductive songs of the Sirens, the threat of Scylla and Charybdis – to life with fresh brilliance. He effortlessly breathes new life into the millennia-old epic of humanity about the adventures of the cunning Odysseus and his companions. Not only is it easy to read, but it is especially recommended for its extensive explanations and character list. This is a translation achievement that is truly exceptional. Sirens, Cyclopes, and sorceresses: the Odyssey is at the core of world literature. A powerful verse translation by Kurt Steinmann. Now in the world's most famous classic series.
