We’ve heard of Odysseus haven’t we? We can consider him as a hero but in a way a tragic hero. A tragic hero can be described as one who is very brave but at the same time foolish. As a tragic hero‚ Odysseus contains tragic flaws‚ which include‚ he’s very cocky‚ he’s violent‚ as and he is also very arrogant; these flaws negatively impact the story because in every bad situation that he has been in he always drags down his men‚ and his flaws made him lose the lives of all of his men.

It was late afternoon when I‚ Polyphemus‚ saw their boat sailing in from the turquoise waters that day. Their leader‚ I later found out that his name was Odysseus. It didn’t really surprise me in the least that they came here because many people have done it in the past. I was actually kind of excited about it because I alone hadn’t had a visitor in a long time though.
