If y'all love the Odyssey, then y'all will love If Beale Street Could Talk by James Baldwin. Both about men trying to get home to their wife and son but can't due to hardships out of their control. I wrote a poem casting Baldwin's characters as the characters in The Odyssey.

real. also, isn't it interesting how it's always the english (lit) teachers? what does that tell you about the impact and value of humanities/being able to read 'into' things
