«La Odisea» is the Greek epic by Homer, published by Edaf in paperback (464 pages, in Spanish).
After the Trojan War, Ulysses (Odysseus) sets out to return to his island, Ithaca, but the journey becomes a succession of dangers: Cyclopes, Sirens, sorceresses and the wrath of the gods. The hero's cunning prevails over brute force in this adventure tale that portrays the world of ancient Greece.
It belongs to the Biblioteca Edaf collection, with an introduction by Alberto Bernabé and a translation from the Greek by Felipe Jiménez Sandoval. The Odyssey is composed in hexameters, like the Iliad.
A classic of Western literature, for readers interested in Greek mythology and epic adventures; it is common reading in schools.
Homer was an ancient Greek poet who is widely credited as the author of the Iliad and the Odyssey, two epic poems that are foundational works of ancient Greek literature. Although his life and authorship remain obscure, Homer was highly revered in ancient Greek society and is considered one of the most influential authors in history.
