The Odyssey

Homer

11 h 18 min · 24 chapters · read by 15 LibriVox volunteers

After ten years at Troy, Odysseus needs ten more to get home: the Cyclops, the witch Circe, the Sirens, the land of the dead, while suitors fill his house and press his wife Penelope to marry. Homer's epic in Samuel Butler's plain prose translation, which reads like a novel.
