People are complaining about the voices... it may not be great quality audio/narration, but it's free, shut up and appreciate that they did this at all.
Whoever made this, I couldn’t thank you enough. I have to read The Odyssey for my classical literature class and my ADHD makes it hard for me read absorb information without hearing it read out loud.
As mentioned at the start it's a librivox recording. It's a group of volunteers that record audio books of public domain works (anything out of copyright). All of the classics have excellent recordings like this so check them out!
Just a heads up for some of you. This is the version where they use the Roman names of the characters instead of the Greek ones. Ulysses=Odysseus Minerva=Athena Jupiter=Zeus Neptune=Poseidon Mercury=Hermes Pluto=Hades etc.
My married side of the family is Greek. It’s so fun. I sit with my 86 year old father in law and the stories and history he knows is amazing. An man who immigrated to the United States with $100 and built an empire. A man who never forgot his home country and loved the United States. He says, “ I have two mothers, one gave me birth, one gave me freedom and I love them both.”
I spent so much time taking classics in college but never read this book! I am doing this because it adds so much to one's wisdom. Homer went from town to town telling this tale and "The Iliad"!
FYI This is available for Kindle for .99. Following along while listening is helping my reading comprehension immensely. Also, thank you to those who added the “bookmarks”.
Here strictly for the love of Ancient Lore and History. These tales were told out aloud for centuries and now for the JOY, fear, sadness, adventure, and true experience these tales are meant to bring, hearing it told out loud to you is the most perfect way emerse yourself in a world long lost to time. 💜♥️💜 Thank you to everyone who worked to give us this beautiful gift of history.
Thank you all the readers and to the uploader, to those complaining about the various readers wtf they are doing us a great service if you dont like it then read it out loud yourself, ingrates.
Well said. It never fails to amaze me how many people will complain about something that is free. If they want a professionally produced and narrated audiobook, they can go and buy one.
let's not just give it a pass. LibriVox is a great idea and a valuable service, but in this instance it suffers in the execution. The abrupt changes in voices, the variations in volume, the strong accents: all these are distractions from enjoyment.
In the Librevox Iliad most chapters are read excellently and brave and noble deeds are recounted, then out of the blue one chapter is read in the most campy voice possible. I can imagine the armies ancient listeners rising from the dead to smite this foul rhapsode.
The first reader was great. They should have chained her to a rock until she finished the whole book. I also find Butler's prose translation much more understandable and entertaining than the stilted and abstruse verse translations, which are kind of silly considering that the Greeks didn't even have rhyme!
I've never read this or had any interest in this tale.. but I watched something on the streaming service Pluto.. a beautifully illustrated telling of the epic. Pretty dark, but thrilling & surprising. So much adventure & danger.. no wonder this tale still has the power to intrigue & capture imaginations.. nearly _3,000_ years after it was written.
Hmmm I know it's normal, but I don't really like how it's a different narrator for every chapter. lol It doesn't flow, but anyway, thanks for this audiobook!
In the first minute. The way the sun god prevented them from reaching home, as told in another translation, is amazing. The god blotted out the day of their return.
Why is everyone getting so pressed about it being the Roman names? It makes no difference. I'm reading this along with the book and it's word for word (other than the roman names)
I just finished and I can only see that picture now. I have memorized the RGB values of each individual pixel. I could recreate that given paint, a brush, and canvas. I sometimes forget that I didn't paint that picture now, someone else did.
"This is what you should teach me, how to be like Odysseus-how to love my country, wife and father, and how, even after suffering shipwreck, I might keep sailing on course to those honorable ends." Seneca, Moral Letters, 88.7b
You're correct, they are using the Roman useage for most of the names. However, they're not reading them incorrectly. They are reading them as they were written. The translator, Samuel Butler, used the Roman names rather than the Greek. So you'll have to fault the translator, not the readers. Butler had his reasons, but I prefer other translations that use the Greek names. At any rate, Butler's is an otherwise fine translation. Thank you to the readers and the poster for sharing this great classic.
This is fabulous, and i love all the readers, thank you from the depths of my being for helping to make our time on this planet more bearable, if not just bearable but for a while wonderful!
Going to write down the times where I left off, so I can listen to the whole book 💯❤😂 Hopefully it goes well. Gang gang “The Odyssey” plus the “The Liad”❤
I'm listening for E tertainmemt. I have read this in print. I only have one constructive criticism, it is read with the Romen gods name's not the Greek. This federation requires a knowledge in both Roman and Greek mythology and the ability to differentiate the two mythology and maintain the Greek in locations and the generation beyond the heros.
No ..I've read homer for pleasure all my life. I prefer the illiad but I'm quite fond of bawdy apalaus. Your absolutely right. Homer is the best author. Yeah he is.... journey to the west is epic too....if people realised that the cult TV show monkey was actually Journey to the west. They'd probably read it more ..I'm fond of the 1001 Nights. Or Arabian Nights .....great books
A complex psychological journey of a man reconciled and compelled to come to self realization in regard to his soul mate and family. A detailed intellectual 'conceit' (ie.metaphor) put forward by Homer.
That's too bad, I was hoping that this reader (Mrs Ferrari?) would do the whole 11+ hrs. I love her....she is one of the best I've ever heard (I prefer Female orators), she loves the story, it's infectious.

Read the translation by Fitzgerald. I think a male reader would be better. This was meant to be read aloud.
I think it’s so much easier to listen than reading this. Especially for school.
Would be much easier if the readers weren't so painful to the ear, they've given me a headache. Give a soothing male voice any day.

Although less enjoyable and you forego the accomplishment of reading it yourself.
