Hey, I recently read The Odyssey and it was such a wonderful book! The characters in it have distinct personalities. Odysseus is brave and resolute. His experiences made me feel the ups and downs of life. This reminds me of Dante in "The Divine Comedy", who is also searching for the truth amidst hardships and obstacles. The plot of "The Odyssey" has ups and downs, like a thrilling adventure
