I've got her copy too. It's good and actually more truthful to the time period. She correctly identifies slaves as slaves, not as butlers or maids or any milder term Victorian era writers use. As well as not hiding SA stuff under euphemism (or calling female victims "prostitutes"). There's a bit where Homer describes Penelope's hand as "thick" which she translates as "muscular" because a woman who has been weaving for years would have very strong muscular hands and arms.
