I’m almost finished reading it. So far, it’s the best translation of the Odyssey that I’ve ever read. The language is more accessible and modern and it flows and reads much more like a novel.
I minored in classic civ in college and have read 2 other versions of the Odyssey previously. She did a great job.

I've got a copy translated by E. V. Rieu from sometime between 1944-1964, so not so modern.
