The Return from Troy Summary

The Return from Troy (The Troy Quartet, Book 4) by Lindsay Clarke

PART FOUR OF THE TROY QUARTET

Bringing ancient myth to life with passion, humour, and humanity, Lindsay Clarke vividly retells the story of Troy and of the heroes who fought there.

Traumatized by the slaughter that his ingenuity unleashed upon the people of Troy, Odysseus believes himself unworthy of returning home.

Embarking on an epic journey to the ends of the world and deep into the shadows of his own heart, Odysseus turns at last for Ithaca, where his wife and son await, besieged by rivals who believe - and wish - him dead.

'An engaging retelling of the whole story, neatly blending mythic archaism with modern psychodrama and satire'
