Complex characters! Plot twists and suspense! Poetry, evocative imagery! Man, it is all here. I've never enjoyed Homer so much. Definitely following Iliad with audiobook, same team, of The Odyssey. This is not as remarkable as the USA trilogy audiobooks I listened to some time back, but damn close.
"The struggle itself ... is enough to fill a man's heart." --Camus

The Deemer Interview
Charles Deemer teaches screenwriting at Portland State University. He is a playwright, novelist, screenwriter, and pioneer in hyperdrama. He was the editor of Oregon Literary Review and the artistic director of Small Screen Video.
"Having written almost daily for over 40 years, I can say that writing is not a job or a vocation or a profession--it is an existence. It is a way of being in the world."
