The book is an exploration of the challenges and techniques involved in translating the epic poems of Homer, the Iliad and the Odyssey, into English metre. Barter examines various translations of Homer's works and discusses the strengths and weaknesses of different approaches to rendering the poetry in English. He also provides his own analysis and suggestions for how the poems can be translated effectively while maintaining the power and beauty of the original Greek.
