Fall Asleep to the ENTIRE Epic Story of the Odyssey

The Iliad ends with a burial. The Odyssey begins with a man who cannot get home — and what follows is the oldest adventure story in the Western world, a ten-year wandering through a sea full of monsters, goddesses, witches, and the dead, driven by a hero whose greatest weapon was never his sword but his mind. This is the complete story of the Odyssey — Homer's epic of Odysseus and his impossible journey from the ruins of Troy back to the island of Ithaca — told from beginning to end in one uninterrupted narrative. From the cyclops Polyphemus and the winds of Aeolus, through the enchantress Circe who turned men into swine, the descent into the underworld where Odysseus speaks with the ghosts of the dead, the sirens whose song kills everyone who hears it, the six-headed monster Scylla and the whirlpool Charybdis, the island of the sun god where everything goes finally and irreversibly wrong — all the way to the homecoming that is not a relief but a reckoning, and the bow that only one man in the world can string. Designed for deep relaxation and effortless sleep, this long-form telling moves at a calm, unhurried pace through one of the greatest stories the human imagination has ever produced — crafted to quiet a restless mind and carry you from wakefulness to sleep without interruption. Close your eyes, settle in, and let the long way home do the rest.
