@bnnaperville0: If you ever feel scared to start “The Odyssey”, just know that the first 104 pages (of Emily Wilson’s translation) are all translator’s notes, maps, and an introduction. Real talk, even though they don’t seem necessary to the story, they provide fantastic cultural context that helps us understand and interpret the story better! 📚🌊 #barnesandnoble #theodyssey #BookTok #bookishhumor #booktokfyp

The prologue for Journey to the west is long like 8 chapters if you include Monkey kings story, and side note he’s not even the main character
