About This Quote

If you read the original book, you’d know that the Odyssey was about Odysseus—or Ulysses, as he was then known. He was a hero of Greek mythology who had to overcome many trials and tribulations. The word “tapestry” is used here because of the woven account of his life through his mind. His mind had been woven with the dedication of Penelope for her husband. She kept him going despite all of his trials and tribulations.
