Odyssey Of A Quiet Man "The weight of the cross that you bear is measured by the guilt in your heart." 'Odyssey' is the story, told over two generations of an insignificant 'quiet man' who was totally unprepared for the world that he was born into. And yet through the resources of his untapped, strength of character he managed to rise above the adversities brought about by his inherently private and dispassionate nature and the inadequacies of his physical stature. One story in two parts, that encompasses the periods of the late Victorian era to the dawn of the new Elizabethan. However, it is also a story of consequences, of a 'quiet man' falling victim of his own honourable disposition and then through no fault of his own being drawn into the dark pit of retribution in his search of spiritual atonement.
