The Odyssey has never been my favorite (I prefer the Iliad). Perhaps it was the translation, but if really felt as if it was one giant propaganda poem to show how great Odysseus is. (Which is probably true - historically it looked back to a time just before the Mycenaean civilization fell)
But the translation is very readable, which is why I bought it in the first place.
