{"product_id":"9781805225850","title":"Crossing the Wine-Dark Sea","description":"'Brilliant ... enthralling and profoundly relevant' Salman Rushdie\n\n'Joyful, illuminating and engaging ... required reading for anyone interested in translation' Madeline Miller\n\nHow do we give old words new voices? What must a translator lose - and what might she gain - when she moves between languages, bringing ancient stories to modern life?\n\nEmily Wilson has spent a lifetime wrestling with these questions: here, she invites us to consider the meaning and messages of translators from antiquity to today - and gives a wholly fresh insight into her own work on Homer. \n\nFrom shifting depictions of Helen of Troy to Cardi B and Athenian comedy, Han Kang's novels and Rome's love of Greek culture, Crossing the Wine-Dark Sea is a playful and fascinating voyage into the promise, possibility and constant renewal of classical literature.","brand":"Profile Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57239628317045,"sku":"9781805225850","price":12.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0289\/5334\/6096\/files\/9781805225850.jpg?v=1780316440","url":"https:\/\/goldenharebooks.com\/products\/9781805225850","provider":"Golden Hare Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
