Book Description Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Graves's retelling of an ancient epic, The Odyssey, new to Penguin Modern ClassicsIn Homer's Daughter Robert Graves recreates the Odyssey. This bold retelling of the ancient epic imagines that its author was not the blind and bearded Homer of legend, but a young woman in Western Sicily who calls herself Nausica . In Robert Graves's words, Homer's Daughter is 'the story of a high-spirited and religious-minded Sicilian girl who saves her father's throne from usurpation, herself from a distasteful marriage, and her two younger brothers from butchery by boldly making things happen, instead of sitting still and hoping for the best.' In 'Homer's Daughter', Graves invents - or discovers - that the author of the Odyssey was a woman, herself part of the epic action.
