Episode Description from the Publisher

Liv reads the final two books of Homer's Odyssey, translated by Ian Johnston. It's time for dramatic reunions (of the living and the dead!), more unnecessary lies, and wrapping things up in a tidy little bow. This modern translation is used with immense gratitude to translator Ian Johnston and Vancouver Island University. AVAILABLE NOW! The Odyssey: a Modern Retelling.

I try to provide direct warnings when there is reference to anything with overtly traumatic themes but be aware that Greek mythology regularly features assault, death, and many other potentially triggering events.Attributions and licensing information for music used in the podcast can be found here: mythsbaby.com/sources-attributions.
