In the odyssey book 22 Penelope and Odysseus reunion?

The reunion of Penelope and Odysseus doesn't happen in Book 22 of *The Odyssey*. It occurs in Book 23.

Here's a breakdown:

* Book 22: The climax of the story! Odysseus, revealed as himself, slaughters the suitors who have been vying for Penelope's hand and consuming his wealth.

* Book 23: Penelope, still doubting Odysseus's true identity despite the evidence, tests him with the story of their bed, which he alone would know the secret of. This test confirms his identity, and the two are finally reunited after 20 years.

So, while Book 22 lays the groundwork with Odysseus's dramatic return and the elimination of the suitors, the actual reunion with Penelope is the focal point of Book 23.
