Alex Moore’s Reviews > The Odyssey > Status Update

I’ve seen many complain about this translation. They deem it “simplistic” or clunky and reductive. I find it to be no such thing. Wilson’s translation is, in a word, lyrical. The way the tale ebbs and flows in iambic pentameter is mesmerising. I feel that she utterly captures the oral tradition that surrounds The Odyssey even through textual form. Loving loving loving!
