The longest journey home ever told. After a decade of bloodshed at Troy, the hero Ulysses yearns only for Ithaca, for his wife Penelope, his son Telemachus, the olive tree by his doorway. But the sea refuses to release him. Sirens song, sorceresses transform his men into swine, Scylla tears six sailors from the decks, and the wrath of Poseidon bottles them up for years. Through cunning and endurance, through prayer to Athena and defiance of the gods, Ulysses must navigate a world where monsters are real and the time between leaving and returning has become a lifetime. This is the story of what it costs to come home, and whether the person you were still exists when you finally arrive.
