Putting Greek myth into modern sensibilities will ALWAYS have confusing moral messages. The original Odyssey is a story about Odysseus' hubris and pride and how it forced reach his home so late. But Epic the Musical (as awesome as the songs are) shifted the overall message by A LOT.

It's because Odysseus killed Helios' (the titan-god who is the personification of the sun) cows.
There IS a myth somewhere about Hermes stealing Apollo's cows when he was a little baby though, and to apologize he creates the lyre and gifts it to Apollo.

Thanks for letting me know!

Oh shit really? Not that it matters but is that the gal who played Circe? Or are you talking about someone else?

If you live this one, you should give Hadestown a try. It's also based on Greek myth and is also very emotional. ❤️

Jorge! When we get our hands on you, Jorge! 🤬😭🥰 For real, though, he's so good at emotional manipulation through song.

You may not like Odysseus as much in that book. The Epic version of Odysseus is a sweet puppy compared to the real Odysseus.
I'm stuck in the same hole! Currently doing Clytemnestra by Costanza Casati for the same reason. One Thousand Ships by Natalie Haynes is next. 😅🥰

Mood.

Can any billionaires be hot? 🤣

They missed out. 🤣

Totally agree. DNF this one.
