A most iconic saint and more Greek mythology, both translated and adapted.
I read the Odyssey in high school and it was a formative experience for me. When I tried reading the Iliad in college I couldn't finish it. There seemed to be no true heroes I could latch onto.
Pretty much how I feel. But even in The Odyssey, I feel it gets too cruel and vengeful at the climax.
