Odysseus Returns

Did Homer’s King Odysseus, the Trojan-horse-designer in the Iliad and the long-suffering wanderer of the Odyssey, really exist? In 1991, Makis Metaxas, a mayor on the Greek island of Kefalonia, finds an ancient Mycenaean tomb. He claims it contains the bones of Odysseus. But the discovery is soon embroiled in controversy, and Makis embarks on his own odyssey to convince the world he is right.
