Description
The Raft of Odysseus looks at the fascinating intersection of traditional myth with an enthnographically-viewed Homeric world. Carol Dougherty argues that the resourcefulness of Odysseus as an adventurer on perilous seas served as an example to Homer's society which also had to adjust in inventive ways to turbulent conditions. The fantastic adventures of Odysseus act as a prism for the experiences of Homer's own listeners--traders, seafarers, storytellers, soldiers--and give us a glimpse into their own world of hopes and fears, 500 years after the Iliadic events were supposed to have happened.

Rachel M. From San Francisco Writes:
"Love it love it. Always stop here when I'm in the square. Last time I picked up a Roberto Bolano book, time before that Zoe Valdes.
They are serious about what they do and will help you find what you need. What's not to love?"
