Hardcover
(Dover Publications, Sept. 16, 2015)
"Tell me, Muse, of the man of many devices, who wandered far and wide after he had sacked Troy's sacred city, and saw the towns of many men and knew their mind." The man is Odysseus ― trickster, warrior, captain, and king ― and the Odyssey is his tale. This magnificent Calla edition features the 1873 verse translation of the ancient classic by poet William Cullen Bryant. Sixteen full-color plates by artist N. C. Wyeth, originally created for a 1929 edition, are now presented for the first time in conjunction with a verse translation of Homer's epic poem.
