Review: The Odyssey is a story about a homicidal maniac (Odysseus) who refuses to ask for directions. This tragic flaw, shared by many men, leads his crew to disaster. Some are eaten by monsters, some are eaten by their crew-mates, and some finally get fed up with this cruise from hell (literally at one point), and take a flight home.
When Odysseus returns home, he is shocked, SHOCKED, to discover that after a 20-year absence, his wife is entertaining the possibility of remarrying.
