HarperCollins is proud to present its new range of best-loved, essential classics. 'Alas that mortals Should blame the gods! From us, they say, All evils come. Yet they themselves It is who through defiant deeds Bring sorrow on them-far more sorrow Than fate would have them bear.' Attributed to the blind Greek poet, Homer, The Odyssey is an epic tale about cunning and strength of mind. It takes its starting point ten years after the fall of the city of Troy and follows its Greek warrior hero Odysseus as he tries to journey to his home of Ithaca in northwest Greece after the Greek victory over the Trojans. On his travels, Odysseus comes across surreal islands and foreign lands where he is in turn challenged and supported by those that he meets on his travels as he attempts to find his way back home in order to vanquish those who threaten his estate. In turn, his son Telemachus has to grow up quickly as he attempts to find his father and protect his mother from her suitors. Dealing with the universal themes of temptation and courage, the epic journey that Odysseus undertakes is as meaningful today as it was almost 3,000 years ago when the story was composed.

'모든 인간들은 신을 비난할 것이다! 우리에게서 악이 나올 것이라고 한다. 운명이 감당할 수 있는 슬픔보다 더 큰 슬픔을 가져올 것이다.'

그리스의 맹인 시인 호머에 의해 쓰여진 것으로 여겨지는 '오디세이'는 인간이 가진 마음의 간사함과 강인함에 대한 서사시이다. 이야기는 트로이를 패망시키고 10년이 지난 후, 그리스의 영웅 오디세이가 그리스 북부에 있는 자신의 고향 이타카로 돌아가면서 겪는 여정을 전한다. 오디세이는 고향으로 돌아오는 길에 초자연적인 섬들, 그리고 외국의 섬들에서 다양한 모험을 한다. 그리고 오래 동안 비웠던 자신의 집과 가정을 빼앗으려는 무리들로부터 가족들을 보호한다. 유혹과 용기에 대한 3000년 전 오디세이의 모험은 오늘날에도 여전히 우리에게 의미가 있는 이야기로 여겨진다.
