Reviewed by khadijareinzukommen war ein pain, aber hat mich ja niemand gezwungen die übersetzung aus 1781 zu lesen. immerhin bin ich mit einem stolzen gefühl rausgegangen, weil ich durchgezogen habe. es war spannend, hat sich zwischendurch aber etwas gezogen. ich fand odysseus teilweise sehr dramatisch (lowkey alle waren bisschen überdramatisch), aber anscheinend waren helden in der griechischen antike so lol. ist aber beeindruckend, dass ich einfach eine 2700 jahre alte geschichte lesen kann
