L'Odyssée by Homer

"L'Odyssée" by Homer is an epic poem composed around the 8th or 7th century BC. It follows Odysseus, king of Ithaca, on his perilous ten-year journey home after the Trojan War. While he battles mythical dangers and loses all his crewmates, his wife Penelope and son Telemachus struggle against aggressive suitors at home. This ancient Greek masterpiece explores themes of homecoming, hospitality, and testing, and is regarded as one of the most significant works of Western literature.
