The Little Odyssey























This is an excellent way to become acquainted with
The Odyssey.

I endeavored to carefully preserve the original, central storyline without forsaking the ornamented language and beauty that hallmark the original. After all, this is my absolute favorite, my beloved of all books. It is a precious thing to me. Thus, I sought to honor it in this retelling.

It is hoped that the uninitiated reader will benefit from this version. Students will find it especially helpful. And, I hope, the lovers of
Homers' Odyssey will like it too.
