When this groundbreaking, serialized dramatization premiered on 320 U.S. radio stations, critics were unanimous in their praise, calling it a feast for the ears and a magnificent blend of scholarship and showmanship. It won numerous honors including the George Foster Peabody Award, the Pulitzer Prize of broadcasting.
Now twenty years after its first airing, Blackstone Audiobooks is pleased to present this outstanding production.
The 2,600-year-old poem tells of a man, a hero of cunning rather than brawn, who inhabits three worlds: first, the world of his own realityhis wife, his son, his home; secondly, the world of myth in which gods and demigods sport and battle; finally, the world of sorcerers and monsters, of magic and ghosts and unspeakable terrors. The exploration and interweaving of these three worlds contribute significantly to the delight that The Odysseys audience has experienced throughout the ages.
