Seymour Chwast
Design legend Seymour Chwast lends his "diabolically witty, devilishly expressive" style to Homer's ancient classic, now brought to life in Graphic Audio.
Seymour Chwast, an icon of the graphic design world, has delighted audiences with his adaptations of classic tales from Dante to Chaucer. Now he turns to Homer's Odyssey.
Following his victory in the Trojan War, Odysseus is desperate to get home. With help from the powers-that-be on Mount Olympus, he journeys far and wide, facing off against the Cyclops, the Lotus-Eaters, the cannibal Laestrygonians, the Sirens, the monster Scylla (beside the whirlpool Charybdis), Poseidon, Athena, Zeus and more.... Featuring bold black, white, and blue illustrations in Chwast's signature style and imbued with sly humor, The Odyssey brings us a dazzling portrayal of a tale as old as time.©2012 Seymour Chwast (P)2026 Bloomsbury Publishing PLC

Critic Reviews
Diabolically witty, devilishly expressive cartoon drawings...an accessible introduction to The Divine Comedy -- a sort of high-end, WHAM-POW Cliff's Notes.... fiendishly entertaining.
With his signature mix of humor, artistry, and high-level design, he conveys a breathtaking amount of information in clear black and white line drawings...Chwast does a stunning job of telling Dante's story in his own brilliant style.
