NOTES

"The Odyssey" is the tale of Odysseus' (Ulysses' in Latin) 10-year journey from the burned ramparts of Troy to his home in Ithaca. It involved many perils and delays, and ended with his violent confrontation with the suitors of his wife, Penelope. There have been many translations; this one in prose reads more like a novel than did its predecessors. For anyone not familiar with the translator's name, he's most famous as "Lawrence of Arabia"
