I am finding Odysseus to be a wholly unattractive character. But the intrigue is fun.

Now I am lucky enough to have the image of Proteus, the old man of the sea, taking his afternoon nap in a pile of seal pups.

My father wrote in the margins of Telemachus’ speech to the suitors “no morality just fear of retribution” and I think that pretty much sums it up.
