Summer Series | Reading The Odyssey like a Professor

The Odyssey is a story of many things, and for me, it’s ultimately an adventure story of fathers and sons, the story of a man spending years of anguish trying to undo his mistakes and just get back home to the ones who love him. For Father’s Day weekend, I sit with my son and we discuss both The Odyssey and his summer reading assignment, How to Read Literature like a Professor. With Honors is a Free Zone Radio production.
