Odysseus sailed from Troy with twelve ships and nearly six hundred men. He came home with none of them. This experimental take retells Homer's epic as the fractured memory of a drowning man in his final minutes, a voyage that is really a trial, where every monster wears his own handwriting. Stripped of the word 'clever', what remains is a man reckoning with what he actually did to get home. It ends where the songs never go: not with a hero's welcome, but with forgiveness offered by the one person who knows exactly what he is.
