Odyssey

Lombardo''s Odyssey offers the distinctive speed, clarity, and boldness that so distinguished his 1997 Iliad. "[Lombardo] has brought his laconic wit and love of the ribald. to his version of the Odyssey. His carefully honed syntax gives the narrative energy and a whirlwind pace. The lines, rhythmic and clipped, have the tautness and force of Odysseus'' bow. " -Chris Hedges, The New York Times Book Review
