description: Homer created the archetypal story of homecoming with The Odyssey. Though a clear sequel to the Iliad, Odyssey is an immensely different poem in the experience of all readers. The title, Homer's The Odyssey, part of Chelsea House Publishers' Modern Critical Interpretations series, presents the most important 20th-century criticism on Homer's The Odyssey through extracts of critical essays by well-known literary critics. This collection of criticism also features a short biography on Homer, a chronology of the author's life, and an introductory essay written by Harold Bloom, Sterling Professor of the Humanities, Yale University.
