Query: A Greek epic

I think this is fantastic translation of a great story. There is a long introduction that explains the nature of the Greek gods, some of the thematic elements to look out for, a description of Homer and the context in which the book was written, and is generally a great reference, especially for those who have little experience with Greek literature. The language has been translated so as to maintain the integrity of the story while making in intelligible. Be aware, this is not light reading, and don't be ashamed to keep a dictionary and guide at hand.But most importantly, let yourself become immersed in the story. Don't read it like a history book, and don't blow it off if it is assigned reading. Endure the emotional journey with Odysseus, search for understanding with Telemachus. Investigate the story; a tale that survived this long should have made its mark on our society. You don't have to love it, but I do think you will learn something.
