    <![CDATA[  <strong>Robert Fagles’s stunning modern-verse translation—available at last in our black-spine   classics line</strong>  <br/><br/>  The Odyssey is literature’s grandest evocation of everyman’s journey through life. In the myths   and legends that are retold here, renowned translator Robert Fagles has captured the energy and   poetry of Homer’s original in a bold, contemporary idiom and given us an <em>Odyssey</em> to read   aloud, to savor, and to treasure for its sheer lyrical mastery. This is an <em>Odyssey</em> to delight   both the classicist and the general reader, and to captivate a new generation of Homer’s   students.]]>

    <body><![CDATA[What a delicious story. It's totally the women. The women *make* this book. Definitely need to read a few other translations to see how I feel about Fagles, but in all I think he's a cool dude. I love that he uses the expression &quot;cut me to the quick&quot;. I give him thumbs way up.]]></body>
