Ships from and sold by EXPERAL Singapore Publisher: WW Norton & Co Origin: United States (Imported) ISBN 13: 9780393356250 Condition: Brandnew Binding: paperback Pages: 592 Dimensons: 211 x 145 x 33 | 657 (gram) ---------------------------------------- The first great adventure story in the Western canon, The Odyssey is a poem about violence and the aftermath of war; about wealth, poverty and power; about marriage, family and identity; and about travellers, hospitality and the changing meanings of home in a strange world. This vivid new translation-the first by a woman-matches the number of lines in the Greek original, striding at Homer's sprightly pace. Emily Wilson employs elemental, resonant language and an iambic pentameter to produce a translation with an enchanting "rhythm and rumble" that avoids proclaiming its own grandeur. An engrossing tale told in a compelling new voice that allows contemporary readers to luxuriate in Homer's descriptions and similes and to thrill at the tension and excitement of its hero's adventures, Wilson recaptures what is "epic" about this wellspring of world literature. Specially bound paperback edition, with deckle-edging (rough-cut) pages and French flaps. Giá sản phẩm trên Tiki đã bao gồm thuế theo luật hiện hành.
