Penguin Classics Ages 9-12 Kids' Books Editorial Review
The Penguin Classics edition of The Odyssey is a must-read for literature enthusiasts. The translation is critical for readers who don't know Greek; thus, it's recommended to take a look at several side by side to determine the best translation suiting personal preference. Despite the misogynist ancient Greek culture having no strong heroines, Penelope's character is impressive and worthwhile. The repetition of certain phrases and descriptions is comfortable, and it's easy to fall into the rhythm of the story and the archaic language, surrendering to the storyteller's art. The interplay between the gods and men is intriguing and fascinating. The Odyssey remains an excellent story that can keep listeners engaged and never let them stop wondering what happens to its hero. The book is recommended for all adventurers who need more perspective.
