In Episode 2 of our Odyssey series, we go inside the poem itself. We begin with the Telemachy the first four books that follow Odysseus's son Telemachus as he tries to become himself in a household under siege. Then we find Odysseus on Calypso's island and watch him make the defining choice of the entire poem: to leave immortality behind and go home. We sail through the court of the Phaeacians and into Odyssey's most brilliant structural move Odysseus narrating his own wanderings before diving deep into the Lotus-Eaters, and the cave of the Cyclops Polyphemus, where one of the oldest monster stories in literature is revealed as a philosophical argument about civilization, appetite, and the cost of pride.
