Odysseus’s journey home, retold
Alfred J. Church presents Homer’s epic as an accessible retelling centered on Odysseus’s attempt to reach Ithaca after the Trojan War. Encounters with the Cyclops and the enchantress Circe give shape to a sequence of obstacles along the way. The edition also includes images from the original printing and additional illustrations, pairing the familiar mythic journey with visual material. Its focus is the homeward voyage and the challenges that repeatedly interrupt it, rather than the full scope of Homer’s poem.
