Summary:
"When Emily Wilson’s translation of The Odyssey appeared in 2017 -- revealing the ancient poem in a contemporary idiom that was 'fresh, unpretentious and lean' (Madeline Miller, Washington Post)--critics lauded it as 'a revelation' (Susan Chira, New York Times) and 'a cultural landmark' (Charlotte Higgins, Guardian) that would forever change how Homer is read in English. Now Wilson has returned with an equally revelatory translation of Homer's other great epic -- the most revered war poem of all time."
