Book 5

In this chapter of book 5 reading all of the gods gathered around to talk about odysseys fate. Zeus then sends Hermes to tell Calypso she has to let Odyssey go and he has to return home.Odyssey then sails home with Calypso help in building a raft. On his way home Poseidon makes a huge storm destroying his boat because Odyssey stabbed his son in the eye. With the help of Athena Odyssey makes it on to shore and has to spend the night in a forest. This chapter left me felling that the gods are not as nice as they may seem and that as hard as one god trys to help a mortal another god is trying to destroy him.
