From War to Wonder: Recovering Your Personal Myth Through Homer's Odyssey

From War to Wonder, Dennis Slattery's new book, not only explicates the beauty and power of the Odyssey, Homer's twenty-seven-hundred-year-old marvel-filled epic, it also offers a marvelous way to interact with it on a daily basis. Those who do so will be amply rewarded by finding access to the poem's myriad meanings, as well as their capacity for forging their own personal myths.

Phil Cousineau, author of Once and Future Myths, and editor of The Hero's Journey: Joseph Campbell on His Life and Work

What a beautiful invitation this book proffers: to spend a year slowly savoring one of the great masterpieces of world literature and day-by-day discovering how it illumines and deepens your understanding of your own life.
