A great house eaten out from the inside, a son who has never met his father, and a ship slipping out of harbour after dark.
Retold for sleep from The Odyssey by Homer, from a public-domain English translation long out of copyright. The story is Homer's; every sentence here is our own.
The Odyssey — The Suitors in the Hall is a sleep story from Salūs — a long bedtime story for adults, read slowly at a bedtime pace.
Salūs is an ad-free sleep and meditation app for iOS and Android — hundreds of guided sessions, long bedtime stories for adults and 325 free sleep sounds. Every session is signed off by our BSc (Hons) & MSc Psychology team.
