In this fanciful tale the epic poet Homer, after composing Iliad and Odyssey, tells his own story: of being born into a prominent family in the Greek city of Smyrna in Asia Minor; of becoming a successful trader in the Phoenician city of Tyre; of learning the healing arts from Shapash, an older woman and his first lover; of fathering a child with Queen Dido of Carthage; of teaching the military arts to the rulers of the young city of Rome; of sailing out into the Ocean Sea and discovering the Celtic isles. Blinded by poison by his political enemies, Homer finds a home in Athens, becomes renowned as a philosopher, and devotes himself to acquiring and spreading wisdom. But when his old lover Shapash appears with a cure for his blindness, Homer returns to Smyrna for a reckoning with his old enemies. In Homeriad, the reader experiences the very gestation of Western civilization through the words of its greatest poet.
