Blurb

"Ithaca Forever can be read on its own as a tale of homecoming, revenge, and disguised identities, or, on another level, as a deconstruction of Homer's Odyssey. . . . It is Malerba's ability to move between Homeric citationality and remarkable inventiveness--keeping his work fresh and accessible for non-Homeric readers--which is one of the features that makes this book such a rewarding read." --from the Introduction by Emily Hauser
