Can someone give me a summary about the odyssey, part 1 ? ?

In a nutshell, Odysseus who is help captive by Calypso who wants him for her husband. Hermes then orders Calypso to release Odysseus on the orders of Zeus. Odysseus then leaves the island and begins making his way back to Ithaca where his wife is being plagued by suitors. His son Telemachus thinks his father is dead until the goddess Athena with Zeus's consent travels to Ithaca disguised as a friends of Odysseus and tells Telemachus that his father is alive and will return soon and gives him instructions on what to do on account of the suitors.

Hope this helps,

the quote relates to no dogs barked because the father and son learn a lot from each other. the theme is love because the father misses his son and they are trying to get to his mom where her dogs are barking.
