“And if a God makes me shipwreck on the wine-dark sea,
I will know how to bear it, because I have a patient soul in my chest:
I have suffered so many misfortunes and endured so many
among the waves and in war: let this one also be with them.”
“Odyssey” by Homer from the nymph Calypso to the meeting with the young Nausicaa, daughter of King Alcinous. The departure, the farewell to immortality, the storm and the landing on the island of the Phaeacians. The lyre of Demodocus and the tears of the heroes.
Giuseppe Cederna reads and tells the story of the journey of Odysseus, a Mediterranean migrant on his way back. A reflection on the ancient welcome of the stranger and the most beautiful declaration of love in the world.
