n books 1-4 of the Odyssey, we follow Telemachus, who has for years been tormented by his father's absence and by the suitors who long for his mother Penelope's hand. Guided by Athena, Telemachus embarks on a journey in search of news of Odysseus. Has this journey changed him in any way? Does Telemachus show growth or is he simply following orders? How might this make him similar to or different than what we know of his father, "godlike Odysseus"?
