Meet the events that the Botanical Garden
has for you this month!
The Classic Book Club presents a special two-session edition dedicated to Homer's Odyssey, one of the most influential narratives in literary history. Driven by the enthusiasm generated by the new film adaptation, we will gather to read, discuss, and discover why this epic poem continues to resonate with our present. We will explore the context in which it was written, its characters, symbols, and major themes, as well as the various ways it has been reinterpreted, culminating in contemporary cinema. Whether you read the work years ago, are just discovering it, or the film has piqued your interest, this will be a space for conversation, sharing readings, and finding new ways to approach a classic that, after almost three thousand years, continues to speak to us.
