"Nolan’s Odyssey lacks many of the elements that make the poem great. It has nothing convincing to say about time, memory, history, war, or about the relationship between one warrior’s glorious return and the lives of his family, adversaries, comrades, friends and neighbours. It lacks psychological, emotional, political and ethical depth. Its narrative structure is gimmicky. The writing is abysmal. None of the characters has convincing motivation for their actions or words. There are no sex scenes, and all the food looks horrible."
Emily Wilson
Io salvo solo il cavallo, finalmente senza rotelline, risparmio Atena e rimpiango l'assenza di Poseidone e del rumore di piedi adolescenti che battevano per terra per aiutarsi a scandire esametri.
