This brilliant successor to the groundbreaking Achilles in Vietnam (Richard Rhodes, author of The Making of the Atomic Bomb) examines the problems faced by combat veterans reentering civilian society through a unique allegorical reading of Homers The Odyssey. nIn this ambitious follow-up to Achilles in Vietnam, Dr. Jonathan Shay uses the Odyssey, the story of a soldiers homecoming, to illuminate the pitfalls that trap many veterans on the road back to civilian life. nSeamlessly combining important psychological work and brilliant literary interpretation with an impassioned plea to renovate American military institutions, Shay deepens our understanding of both the combat veterans experience and one of the worlds greatest classics.n
