Now that the first teaser trailer has dropped for Christopher Nolan’s IMAX extravaganza of Homer’s “The Odyssey,” I’ve decided it’s long past time to actually read the thing.
A little research brought me to the “radically contemporary voice” of Emily Wilson’s 2017 translation, and what I’ve read so far is lucid and spectacular. This is the one!
The movie won’t be out until mid-July of 2026, so I’ll be savoring it daily, a few pages at a time. I love big reads.
