What must a translator lose - and what might she gain - when she moves between languages, bringing ancient stories to modern life?Emily Wilson has spent a lifetime wrestling with these questions: here, she invites us to consider the meaning and messages of translators from antiquity to today - and gives a wholly fresh insight into her own work on Homer. From shifting depictions of Helen of Troy to Cardi B and Athenian comedy, Han Kang's novels and Rome's love of Greek culture, Crossing the Wine-Dark Sea is a playful and fascinating voyage into the promise, possibility and constant renewal of classical literature.","brand":"Profile Books Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51907351314720,"sku":"9781805225850","price":11.04,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0753\/2812\/7264\/files\/9781805225850_2491246.jpg?v=1782239410","url":"https:\/\/bookcorner.com\/products\/crossing-the-wine-dark-sea-emily-wilson-9781805225850","provider":"The Book Corner","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
