1958 The Odyssey: A Modern Sequel by Nikos Kazantzakis Epic Poem Book

Description: The Odyssey: A Modern Sequel by Nikos Kazantzakis with illustrations by Ghika, translated introduced, and annotated by Kimon Frair. Simon & Schuster, New York, 1958 (third impression). Illustrated 800+ page hardcover with no jacket. Light fading on outer boards, former owner's name neatly inscribed inside front - no interior markings of other glaring flaws. A continuation of Homer’s epic poem, Kazantzakis’s own Odyssey finds Odysseus once again leaving Ithaca on finding that the satisfactions of home and hearth are not as he remembered them. Following an encounter with the former Helen of Troy (now returned to her husband, the king of Sparta, after the ignominious defeat of the Trojans), Odysseus gradually wends his way to Egypt and southward, grappling all the while with questions about the nature of God. Considered by Kazantzakis himself to be one of his most important works, The Odyssey takes readers on a richly imagined quest for adventure and understanding with one of literature’s most timeless characters. $4.90 domestic US shipping.
