This work concerns the wanderings of Odysseus, from the fall of Troy to his return to Ithaca in books five to thirteen in Homer’s epic poem The Odyssey. It provides a reliable and readable translation of substantial parts of those books and a summary of the remaining parts, together with in-depth literary analysis intended to enhance critical appreciation and plain enjoyment of what is the most famous and appealing segment of Homer’s epic. The book also includes exercises, topics for investigation and references to other scholars and classical authors in order to extend the reader’s engagement with The Odyssey.

During a long career as a Professor of Classics, specializing in Greek and Latin literature, Paul Murgatroyd produced over 100 publications (including 15 books). After retirement, he now writes novels and short stories, and is an editor for the Creative Hub, which focuses on climate change and climate justice.
