The Odyssey

If The Iliad is the world's greatest war epic, then The Odyssey is literature's grandest evocation of everyman's journey though life. Odysseus's reliance on his wit and wiliness for survival in his encounters with divine and natural forces during his ten-year voyage home to Ithaca after the Trojan War is at once a timeless human story and an individual test of moral endurance. Translated by Robert Fagles Introduction and Notes by Bernard Knox 请读者注意，你将要购买的这本书属于“Rough Cut”即传统的毛边剪裁。 A:有些精装书的切口为何很毛糙？ Q:毛边书在国外出版界通常用于重要的精品图书，为了使特定图书看起来更特别更有品味。在过去毛边书的生产流程会更为复杂和昂贵。而且毛糙的切口对于藏书者来 说可是贴心举措！当你阅读后，可以将该书拿去给印刷厂在毛糙切口处重切一刀，黑色的手指印和因为阅读而形成的卷曲立即消失，一本崭新的适于收藏的图书出现 了！ 国内读者可千万别误会这属于品质差的图书，所有亚马逊中国提供的原版书都是由国家规定的图书进出口公司进口的国外出版社正规制作的原版图书产品，与国外销 售的产品完全一样。
