Derek Walcott's Encounter with Homer puts Walcott's epic poem Omeros in conversation with Homer to show how reading them against each other changes our understanding of both. Rachel Friedman examines Walcott's use of the Homeric persona of Omeros to explore his own deepening relationship with his craft and his identity as a Caribbean poet.
