《The Odyssey》Part 1丨The War Is Over, But the Journey Is Not

He had survived a war that lasted ten years. Troy has fallen. The ships are finally turning home. And Odysseus, king of Ithaca, longs for only one thing — to return to the wife, son, and island he left behind. But the journey home will not be simple. In this calm retelling of The Odyssey, we begin after the Trojan War, when Odysseus and his men set sail across the dark and restless sea. Along the way, they face the first mistakes and temptations of the voyage: the raid at Ismarus, the strange forgetfulness of the Lotus-Eaters, and the terrible cave of the Cyclops. But this is not only a story about monsters. It is a story about what a person carries after war. About longing for home. About pride, memory, delay, and the sea that does not always let a man return unchanged. This is The Odyssey — Part 1: The War Is Over, But the Journey Is Not.
