Odyssey of Homer - Richmond Lattimore 豆瓣评分[9.20]

The most eloquent translation of Homer's epic chronicle of the Greek hero Odysseus and his arduous journey home after the Trojan War. Odysseus survives a storm and shipwreck, the cave of the Cyclops and the isle of Circe, the lure of the Sirens' song and a trip to the Underworld, only to find his most difficult challenge at home, where treacherous suitors seek to steal his kingdom and his loyal wife, Penelope.

Richmond Lattimore was born in 1906 and died in 1984. He was considered one of the leading translators of Greek classical literature.
