In July 2026 crowds filled the biggest screens in the country to watch a film based on a poem nearly three thousand years old. This is a chapter-by-chapter companion to Nolan's film and to the Odyssey underneath it.
It looks at what was kept and what was cut, how you film the open sea and a Cyclops, where the gods went, how the film handles the women, and the killing in the hall at the end, which every age has had to explain to itself in its own way.
What you get: a ZIP file containing the book as a PDF (135 pages) and an EPUB, so you can read it on a computer, tablet or e-reader.
