Love, revenge, war, and fate - these eternally human themes are explored in the "Odyssey," which made its creator, Homer, famous even during his lifetime. In twenty-four cantos, this epic tells the story of King Odysseus and his companions' delayed return home from the Trojan War, hindered by many detours. Bloody battles, seafaring adventures, as well as erotic and mystical encounters shape their journey. The most famous of all odysseys is one of the oldest and most influential epics - when read by Manfred Schradi, it reveals its full narrative power.
