Telemachus sends the swineherd to Penelope to tell her he’s back secretly, but says not to tell Laertes yet, but rather the nurse. He is super nice to Odysseus even though the latter is disguised as an old, smelly beggar. Telemachus arrives at the swineherd’s hut, and is greeted warmly. I assume the reason for the steady insertion of recaps is that this oral history wasn’t told aloud in one fell swoop, so this is the ancient version of “Last Time in the Odyssey…” Things have really picked up this week now that Odysseus and Telemachus are back in Ithaca, and everyone isn’t just sitting around talking. Hey, for those of you who aren’t joining us, there is an audio version of it read by, wait for it…Ian McKellen! If you are more likely to listen than to read, then you might want to check it out. But I’m ready to give it a go, and looking forward to the support of a group while reading. I’ve never even attempted this behemoth-too intimidating.
