Uh, yeah. Not my favorite thing that I've read in school. I like mythology alot, but this didn't interest me much.

    The greatest story ever told, so beautifully told. This novel, or song, coupled with the Iliad are without the cornerstones of Western Literature, and quite possibly their finest achievements. Danielle, comparing the Odyssey to Harry Potter is like comparin a sugar cube and a real meal. Many people want the cube, and the stupid will take it, but those with brains who crave word nourishment will always choose the meal.

    Hard to imagine that there was a time when everybody knew about these tales and the peoples in them. It's a sad, sad day when a great literary work such as this is passed over for the Pottery and da Vinci-an blah that passes for literature nowadays.
