As you already know, Odysseus spent 10 years to be able to return home and to his family. This time generated a certain suffering for the hero, since he did not like having left his home and missed his wife and son very much.
In these 10 years, Odysseus spent 7 years being a prisoner of Calypso, a nymph who fell in love with him and imprisoned him.
