Arnold Zable's most recent novel, Sea of Many Returns, has been nominated for the Impac Dublin Literary Award, 2010
Ithaca, the island of Homer’s Odyssey, has beguiled readers for millennia. In his latest novel, Sea of Many Returns, Arnold Zable takes us to modern-day Ithaca, to its mountains, its villages and its harbours, and into the houses of its people. Sea of Many Returns is a profound meditation on displacement and exile — a story that affirms the enduring resonance of the Odyssey for voyagers of all times.
