Status Updates From De geïllustreerde Odyssee: ...

I somehow avoided this story my entire education! Now grown, I am interested to see WHAT and WHY readers/teachers were fixated on this piece. The illustrated, condensed version is exactly what I needed. Thank you!

Dad is dead; so wife thinks. Son wants to know. With the help of gods he will journey to find his dad’s bones or dad alive. Currently suitors are filling the rooms of his home. Waiting for wife to take on a husband. They’re taking advantage of the situation; slaughtering their meat, drinking and eating all Dad’s goods. Mom says she’ll marry when her loom project is finished. She unravels it in the night.
