A Man of Constant Sorrow

Both Odysseus and Everett are described as a " Man of Constant Sorrow". Throughout The Odyssey Homer refers to Odysseus as the man of constant sorrow whilst in the film Everett and his crew form the Soggy Bottom Boys and perform the bluegrass song "Man of Constant Sorrow."
The suffering of the wandering hero then becomes a major motif in both texts.
