On today’s show we hear a wonderful story by Daniel Arthur Smith, The Titan’s Daughter, a creative reworking of the Calypso excerpt of Homer’s Odyssey, a series of dreams and faint memories trigger a mysterious longing in a man otherwise content.

After the story, Daniel and I have a great talk about how this story was crafted, and how Daniel’s life as an adventurer has honed his craft and how his experiences give inspiration to his work.
