Odyssey

The Odyssey closes the My Favorite Romance podcast. This is a Greek epic poem attributed to Homer, a character who belongs more to myth than to history. Despite this, his figure survived 4 thousand years as the author of the Iliad and the Odyssey, two epic poems with which world literature begins. The latter, also known as Ulysses (Odysseus), takes place in the time of the gods and tells of the deeds of our protagonist upon his return to Ithaca and all the trials he has to overcome. With Ricardo Velazquez, Samuel Davalos and Katius Valencia. Adapted by Mariana González Gavilano, directed by Alonso Alegria.
