Summary
A continuation of Homer’s epic poem, Kazantzakis’s own Odyssey finds Odysseus once again leaving Ithaca on finding that the satisfactions of home and hearth are not as he remembered them. Following an encounter with the former Helen of Troy (now returned to her husband, the king of Sparta, after the ignominious defeat of the Trojans), Odysseus gradually wends his way to Egypt and southward, grappling all the while with questions about the nature of God.
Considered by Kazantzakis himself to be one of his most important works, The Odyssey takes listeners on a richly imagined quest for adventure and understanding with one of literature’s most timeless characters.

many people will enjoy this book
very strong imagery, well written great control of language.
if you are seriously into homer you may have issues relating to decorum that hurt your soul.
this is a good book for anyone who enjoyed the film 'troy.'
