Review
"This fine commentary, with text...is more than welcome, and is distinguished by a long introduction of ninety-five pages which is remarkable both for its quality and its completeness...This is an altogether admirable book, and one from which scholars at every level should benefit." Times Literary Supplement
Book Description
The Odyssey, besides being one of the world's first and best adventure stories, is a poem of great subtlety, rich in irony and sophisticated characterisation. In this edition, Richard Rutherford provides not only detailed comment on the action, characterisation and style of books XIX and XX, but also, in an extensive introduction, a general survey of the Odyssey as a whole.
