Hello and welcome to the Slate Audio Book Club for the month of December 2017.

I'm Katie Waldman, a staff writer at Slate, and I'm joined today by Parole

Seagal of the New York Times Book Review. Hi, Paul. Hey, Katie. And by Megan O'Rourke, a writer and

critic, and this podcast's original founder. Hi, Megan. Hi. Today we will talk about Emily Wilson's

new translation of The Odyssey, the Homeric epic poem that is thousands of years old,

that kicked off the Western canon alongside the Iliad, and that tells the story of Odysseus' difficult

wandering journey home from Troy. The greatness of the Odyssey is not in dispute, but Wilson's

translation has been getting a lot of attention because it is the first ever to be produced in

English by a woman.

It also has a wonderful introduction, and translators note that hopefully we can look at if we have time.

And I should also say that next month's book that we're discussing will be the wonderful Her Body and Other Parties by Carmen Maria Machado.

I guess I wanted to start by asking you both which translations of the Odyssey you're most familiar with, which you've read, and how you think Wilson's is different if it is.

The translations that I knew before this were the Latimore, Richard Latimore and the Robert Fagall's translation.
