Odysseus Unbound

The Search for Homer's Ithaca
Description

Where is the Ithaca described in such detail in Homers Odyssey? This sumptuous book tells the extraordinary story of the exciting recent discovery of its true location. Over a century after Schliemanns discovery of Troy, this breakthrough will revolutionise our understanding of Homers texts and of Bronze Age Greece. This book is a gem. Its reconstruction of prehistoric Ithaca has a convincingly Homeric look and feel to it. Reading the Odyssey is unlikely ever to be the same again - Gregory Nagy.
