User reviews

Very cool Project

What an amazing way to even get a glimpse into how this story was originally told. This obviously took a ton of work and I really appreciate the time and effort you all put into building it. Bravo!

Response from developer

Thank you. That glimpse of how the poem sounded is exactly what we were after. Every line is there in the original with the Greek you need to read it yourself, so we hope you keep going well past the first book.

Poor Audio.

AI (or AI like) Audio - not a pleasure

Could have been a human generated rhythmic sound.

Response from developer

The narration is a synthetic reading of all twenty-four books, every line timed to the hexameter, because no recorded human performance of the full Greek Odyssey exists. It is there for anyone who wants to hear the metre while they read. The text, the word-by-word glosses and the translation do not depend on it.
