Description

With an introduction by the author, this is Tom Stoppard in the voice ofOdysseus's wife recalling how the Trojan War 'took away my husband for tenyears, and ten more coming the long way home', and his dramatic arrival backon Ithaca. Weaving Homeric tropes with the wry wit of a woman of our time, Penelopetells this still vibrant love story from the oldest poem in Western literature.
