Resumo:
In the sequel to her course, "Iliad," Dr. Vandiver explores the story of Odysseus, "the man of many twists and turns." Odysseus returns home from the Trojan War by the most winding and adventurous route imaginable, battling gods and monsters and even visiting Hades in his quest to get to Ithaca and set his lands and life in order.
