Sing, Muse, of Jeffrey Epstein, the man of many twists and turns who wandered full many ways until his odyssey came to an end in a cell in the Metropolitan Correctional Center in New York, where, despite being the most famous suspect in the land, no one was watching as he did or did not kill himself. Epstein’s life and crimes are an American epic, Homeric in scale, appetite, and immorality. The 3.5 million pages of material in the Justice Department’s information dump of Jan. 30 would, if printed, amount to about 1,000 copies of War and Peace or around 5,000 copies of Homer’s Iliad and Odyssey in a single edition.
