From the award-winning, bestselling author: a deeply moving story of a father and his son who discover the power of reading – and living again – through Homer's epic masterpiece.
When the 81-year-old retired scientist Jay suddenly decides to enroll in his estranged son Daniel's Odyssey course, a journey of a lifetime begins. The professor and the student learn significant lessons from the book's pages over the course of a semester and, that summer, father and son travel to the sea following Odysseus' epic path. Reading Homer becomes their chance to understand each other before it's too late. It's a touching and educational story of hospitable love and the importance of the classics. Rich in literary and emotional perspectives, it weaves themes of deception and recognition, marriage and children, the joys of travel and the meaning of home, this is memoir writing at its finest.
