Homework: Assigned readings and notetaking. Optional essays.
The immortal tale of Odysseus’s journey home from the Trojan War, and what he found when he got there.
Why it will interest you: If you love love legends of monsters, high-stakes survival, and heroes who win with their wits rather than just their swords, you’ll be hooked. Plus, get the "inside scoop" before Christopher Nolan’s IMAX blockbuster hits theaters this July.
What you’ll get out of it: Beyond any academic requirement, you’ll build the "literary stamina" to navigate complex texts. You will learn how to take sophisticated notes that make even the most intimidating epics feel manageable.
The Fun Factor: This is a great book. There is a unique pleasure in "summiting" one of the greatest stories ever told. We treat the text as a living adventure, making a 3,000-year-old story feel as fresh as a modern thriller.
"This challenging (and intimidating) epic poem would be a struggle for most adults, but Suhail helped the students approach this work and make sense of it. Kai felt a real sense of accomplishment after summiting that literary mountain." — Tim & Yoshie, Parents
