Echoing the sage words of @CyndiALauper, we keep returning to #Odysseus "time after time." Why is that? @sentantiq weighs in: shorturl.at/ObSar. And don't forget to learn about Odysseus' "True Colors" as a character in @sentantiq's new book: shorturl.at/NURfY

Troubling Heroes: Why We Keep Returning to Odysseus

Why do we keep retelling the story of Odysseus? Perhaps because this 'complicated' version of a hero helps us think more deeply about ourselves.

Imagine a world where instead of trying to usurp the Triple Crown, NYRA/CDI capitalized on only thing the general public knows about horse racing to incentivize horses to stick around at 4+ Guess that would make too much sense

There's a whole ecosystem of people who reach out to authors offering to make things like "book trailers". I told my son (14) about it, and he said 'I can do that" so he did. Book trailer for Why Odysseus: Survivor, Scoundrel (Anti)hero youtu.be/UEeSR_9QSYU?si=2_wK… via @YouTube
