Adventures of Odysseus and The Tale of Troy
Memorable retelling of Homer's Iliad and Odyssey—written for young readers by Ireland's great poet and playwright—follows Odysseus on his perilous journey to the land of the Cyclops, where he encounters a race of giants, each with a single eye in the middle of his forehead; confronts Circe, an enchantress who turns Odysseus's men into swine; and experiences a host of other amazing adventures before he returns to his faithful wife, Penelope. 17 black-and-white illustrations. |
