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.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Griffin Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57122704654709,"sku":"9781805225850","price":12.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0379\/1365\/7388\/files\/9781805225850.jpg?v=1777710533","url":"https:\/\/www.griffinbooksonline.co.uk\/products\/9781805225850","provider":"Griffin Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
