Un nonno, quattro nipoti e un viaggio in Grecia. E, poiché il nonno è professore di Letteratura greca, il viaggio si trasforma in un'occasione speciale per conoscere le radici classiche della nostra cultura. Atene, Delfi, Olimpia, Itaca e Micene sono le tappe dell'itinerario percorso; luoghi bellissimi dove rimangono ancora tracce evidenti e suggestive: resti archeologici, legati alle memorie letterarie. Il nonno descrive a Giorgio, Luciana, Andrea e Sara ciò che si trova davanti ai loro occhi e il racconto si sposta poi alla storia e all'epica che da questi luoghi sono evocate.
