      Stanley Lombardo's translation of Homer's classic work aims to offer the distinctive speed and clarity of his other translations.

      Lombardo''s Odyssey offers the distinctive speed, clarity, and boldness that so distinguished his 1997 Iliad.

      "[Lombardo] has brought his laconic wit and love of the ribald . . . to his version of the Odyssey. His carefully honed syntax gives the narrative energy and a whirlwind pace. The lines, rhythmic and clipped, have the tautness and force of Odysseus'' bow."
      —Chris Hedges, The New York Times Book Review
