HOMER
'the oldest book worth reading for its story, and the first novel of europe'. T.E. Lawrence.
As well as being one of the greatest and most influential books ever written, The Odyssey is the finest of adventure stories. It tells of the ten-year wanderings of Odysseus after the fall of Troy, of his encounters with drug addicts, cannibals, nymphs and monsters, and of his struggles for the favour of the capricious gods.
T.E. Lawrence, 'Lawrence of Arabia', was a scholar as well as a soldier, and his senitive and accessible translation of The Odyssey is one of his finest works.
The original of this edition was designed by Bruce Rogers and published in New York in 1932. This impression is a reprint of the 1935 english edition.
