Originally commissioned for BBC Radio, this is an adaptation of Homer's epic. This title presents "Odyssey" as a series of dramatic dialogues: between gods and men; between no-nonsense Captain Odysseus and his unruly, lotus-eating, homesick companions; between subtle Odysseus and a range of shape-shifting adversaries.


His version bristles with the economy, wit and guile that we have come to expect from one of the most individual voices of his generation.
