what is the Odyssey a tale?

The Odyssey is an epic poem in 24 books traditionally attributed to the historical Greek poet Homer. The poem is the story of Odysseus, king of Ithaca, who wanders for 10 years (even though the action of the poem covers best the very last six weeks) trying to get domestic after the Trojan warfare.

The phrase that best shows how cunning Odysseus was must be the following: “My name is Nohbdy: mother, father, and friends, everyone calls me Nohbdy.” The idea is that the main character of the play conflicts with Cyclops.
