I, Odysseus: Destroyer of Worlds

In this epic of fiery words and living memory, Odysseus not only travels seas or fights monsters, but travels into the cracks of his soul. This is not the hero who simply returns to Ithaca: he is the man who defies the gods, who doubts fate, who loves and hurts, who remembers and consumes himself. Between songs and silences, the poem traverses' glory and emptiness, war and home, passion and guilt, the thirst for knowledge and the impossible desire for redemption.I, Odysseus, Destroyer of Worlds reimagines the famous Homeric protagonist as a multiple, divided, profoundly human being. Here he faces Penelope, Telemachus, Athena, his mother in Hades, but also the mirrors of his decisions. At every step, Odysseus sings, dreams, dialogues, grows old... and he asks us if the true return is not to the port, but to himself.A modern, lyrical, powerful epic poem that navigates between ancient myths and the wounds of the present. Because destroying a world, perhaps, is only the first act of those who try to found another.
