Mulysses

Mulysses has lost his job, and his apartment is about to be demolished, with his belongings already seized. He needs $5,000 quickly. Just when he seems out of options, a wealthy collector offers him that sum on one condition: he must bring back the biggest eye in the world, which is said to give its owner tremendous power.

Like Ulysses and Ishmael before him, Mulysses sets out across the ocean in pursuit of excitement and a clearer sense of who he is. The book draws on The Odyssey, Moby-Dick, and other works in its sea-going story.

Øyvind Torseter is a Norwegian cartoonist known as the country's greatest, and he is also one of its most acclaimed illustrators. Mulysses is his seventh book with Enchanted Lion.
