What is the Greek poem about?

The “Odyssey” is an old epic poem from ancient Greece, often linked to Homer and believed to have been written around 800 BCE. It’s a cornerstone of Western literature and continues the story started in “The Iliad”. This tale recounts the adventurous ten-year voyage of Odysseus, the clever king of Ithaca, as he attempts to return home after the Trojan War. Throughout his journey, he overcomes legendary obstacles such as the one-eyed giant Polyphemus, the tempting Sirens, and the powerful sorceress Circe.

In addition to facing the unpredictable actions of gods, Odysseus receives support from Athena while suffering under Poseidon’s anger. Meanwhile, in Ithaca, his wife Penelope stands up against relentless suitors who presume that Odysseus is no longer alive. At the same time, their son Telemachus embarks on a journey to discover what happened to his father.
