Publisher's Synopsis

'The Return of Ulysses' explains Homer's epic in terms of its susceptibility to adaptation. Not only has the story reflected a myriad of different agendas, but from the tragedies of classical Athens to detective fiction, film, travelogue and opera, it has seemed perhaps uniquely fertile in generating different artistic forms.
