1984 short film Orpheus and Eurydice by animator Lesley Keen🏺

A lot of people are reading THE ODYSSEY right now. I highly recommend reading the first chapter of Erich Auerbach’s masterpiece, MIMESIS. The chapter’s titled “Odysseus' Scar” and makes an interesting case for Homer as one of the first writers who tried to represent reality.
