Reviews
"A splendid achievement. . . the best translation there is of a great, perhaps the greatest, poet." -- New York Times Book Review "A landmark in the history of modern translation. . . . Lattimore has reanimated Homer for this generation, and perhaps for other generations to come." -- Times Literary Supplement (London) "Lattimore's translation of Homer's Odyssey is the most eloquent, persuasive, and imaginative I have seen. It reads as if the poem had originally been written in English." -- Paul Engle "The best. . . translator of Greek poetry into English is Richmond Lattimore. . . . This is the best Odyssey in modern English." -- Gilbert Highet "[Lattimore's] Odyssey is his masterpiece." -- Walter Kaufmann

Synopsis
Homer's great epic The Odyssey--one of Western literature's most enduring and important works--translated by Richmond Lattimore "A splendid achievement. . . the best translation there is of a great, perhaps the greatest, poet." -- New York Times Book Review A classic for the ages, The Odyssey recounts Odysseus' journey home after the Trojan War--and the obstacles he faces along the way to reclaim his throne, kingdom, and family in Ithaca. During his absence, his steadfast and clever wife, Penelope, and now teenaged son, Telemachus, have lived under the constant threat of ruthless suitors, all desperate to court Penelope and claim the throne. As the suitors plot Telemachus' murder, the gods debate Odysseus' fate. With help from the goddess Athena, the scattered family bides their time as Odysseus battles his way through storm and shipwreck, the cave of the Cyclops, the isle of witch-goddess Circe, the deadly Sirens' song, a trek through the Underworld, and the omnipresent wrath of the scorned god Poseidon. An American poet and classicist, Richmond Lattimore's translation of The Odyssey is widely considered among the best available in the English language. Lattimore breathes modern life into Homer's epic, bringing this classic work of heroes, monsters, vengeful gods, treachery, and redemption to life for modern readers., Homer's great epic The Odyssey --one of Western literature's most enduring and important works--translated by Richmond Lattimore A classic for the ages, The Odyssey recounts Odysseus' journey home after the Trojan War--and the obstacles he faces along the way to reclaim his throne, kingdom, and family in Ithaca.

The seller was very understanding and gave me a full refund for the damaged book, though it was no fault of their own. Other than the damage, the book was as described, the quality and condition aside from the damaged spot was like new. The cost of the book was reasonable. I would definitely purchase from the seller again.

The minimal packaging left the book a bit vulnerable (typical for ThriftBooks), but it did arrive safely and timely. As usual, it’s hit or miss with this seller, but often times you can get great values, and their customer service is always very good.
