Odysseus wants to return home to Penelope because he is deeply devoted to his wife and family. He has been separated from them for a long time due to his journey and trials after the Trojan War, and he yearns to be reunited with his loved ones. Additionally, Odysseus wants to reclaim his throne and kingdom in Ithaca, which has been overrun by suitors vying for Penelope's hand in his absence.
