In this innovative re-imagining of the <i>Odyssey’</i>s history, Sicilian princess Nausicaa recounts her story, and how she, not the poet Homer, came to write the <i>Odyssey. </i>Set in the eighth century B.C., it recounts the story of a determined young woman who lives an adventurous life: rescuing her father’s throne from outside threats, freeing herself from an abusive marriage, and saving her two younger brothers from certain death. Nausicaa is a passionate, religious, and dynamic heroine who is more than a match for the heroes in the epic poem she claims to have authored.
