The Odyssey is an immortal poem about man’s journey towards light, about the vicissitudes and tests of the spirit, about the finding of life’s meaning and its stoical acceptance as a gifted journey amid longings and illusions and through hopes and the stages of life. The Odyssey is also about return - the moment when man is alone and naked under the sky just as he was in the hour of his birth; it is also the moment when his other, eternal journey begins through the seas and islands of recurring time.
