The Odyssey Books V-VIII

Well I am now enjoying The Odyssey much more now that we are talking about Ulysses and not Telemachus. I am starting to love how the author describes things and the epithets are slightly annoying but they're also quite beautiful. Calypso sounds like one wacked out chick! Though I do enjoy the way Homer described her home at the beginning of book V, it was great!

  1. I'm glad someone else is getting sick of the epithets. They're nice, but they can get to be overkill.
