The Odyssey: Homecoming is Not a Place
Homer's epic reimagined as a modern novel: literary, sharp-witted, precise-and strikingly contemporary.
The war-weary strategist Odysseus is trying to get home. But between him and Ithaca lie not adventures, but trials everyone knows, only told on a larger scale: seduction through meaning, decisions without clean hands, hunger as a test of morality, stillness as the most beautiful form of captivity. On islands, in storms, in palaces, and at the margins of society, Odysseus gathers not only scars, but an unsettling insight: homecoming is not a place, but a state one must work to regain.
While Penelope withstands a siege at home with cool intelligence, Odysseus becomes a beggar in his own house and must learn that courtesy can kill just as surely as the sea.
In the end, it is not victory that awaits, but the hardest discipline of all: peace.
A novel about power and language, longing, and self-deception-and about the truth that homecoming is not a place, but work.
