From
Stephen Mitchell, the renowned translator whose Iliad was named one of The New Yorker\'s Favorite Books of 2011, comes a vivid new translation of the
Odyssey, complete with textual notes and an illuminating introductory essay. The hardcover publication of the
Odyssey received glowing reviews: The New York Times praised
Mitchell\'s fresh, elegant diction and the care he lavishes on meter, which] brought me closer to the transfigurative experience Keats describes on reading Chapman\'s Homer; Booklist, in a starred review, said that
Mitchell retells the first, still greatest adventure story in Western literature with clarity, sweep, and force; and John Banville, author of The Sea, called this translation a masterpiece. The

Full of imagination and light, beauty and humor, this Odyssey carries you along in a fast stream of action and imagery. Just as Mitchell re-energised the Iliad for a new generation (The Sunday Telegraph), his Odyssey is the noblest, clearest, and most captivating rendition of one of the defining masterpieces of Western literature.
