The Iliad and the Odyssey are two great epics òf Homer. I read both books. I like them. The Odyssey has a frame tale structure. Odyssey told his adventure at the party.

As a child, Odyssey was one of my best story from the Greek mythology. I loved it. Amazing review.

Same here. However, I want to read the original copies if the are accessible. I have searched for libraries that has the original copies but I have not seen any.

Homer is a great writer. Have you read any poem by Hesiod. Homer and Hesiod writing style looks compatible. I think the have a lot in common. I love Greek classics and have read them randomly. I believe the are great materials

I didn't actually read the book, I saw the movie. It was so great! I still talk of Odessey till date, and I want a man as brave as he is!
