At the end of his life, Steven Foster gives space to his love for Homer's Odyssey and writes a love story for men on their way home. This work is based on 65 years of life experience as a literature professor, as a companion in initiation processes in the wilderness, as a nature therapist, as a writer, and as a poet. In this book, he takes up the ancient epic of Homer and analyzes the old myth from the perspective of male initiation. The Odyssey has been interpreted in various ways for a long time. What lies behind Odysseus' journey? What adventure represents which stage of life? Why did he have to be separated from his love for so long, and what is the significance of his struggle with his own son? These are questions that the literature professor will answer in his book.
