Now, in July 2019, poet Ken Hunt utilizes NASA's Apollo 11 voice transcription document, a chronicle of the first six days of that mission, to create \u003ci\u003eThe Odyssey\u003c\/i\u003e, an erasure poem of star charts carved from the technical jargon and offhand remarks found in that transmission. The resulting text is both a progressive investigation and a commemorative homage to a major historic event; it will transport you from the surface of our planet to the eerie territory of outer space, a realm populated by the disembodied voices of ghosts, gods, and lost explorers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe Odyssey\u003c\/i\u003e compares the astronauts of the 20th and 21st centuries to seafarers of ancient Greek literature, mythic figures who devoted their lives to endeavours of discovery and understanding.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ken Hunt\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1771665637\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781771665636\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Book*hug Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/20\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 310\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.80lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.90h x 4.90w x 0.80d","brand":"Ken Hunt","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43983598813439,"sku":"9781771665636","price":20.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_b6ae6d60-d046-45bd-baf5-d896f49f0152.jpg?v=1683267605","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-odyssey-ken-hunt-9781771665636","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
