Well the conflict is that the nymphs trapped Odysseus and won't let him return to his homeland. I forgot about the resolution. I read that book like 7 years ago.

Samuel Beckett once wrote that all stories are the same one: a figure, a background, and a longing to get home. The resolution of The Odyssey is that he gets home.
(The major conflict is Odysseus' attempt to get home in every sense -- through miles and the efforts of monsters and temptresses, and while his home is beseiged by suitors who would usurp him. He makes it home, cleans out the bad guys on the road and at his home, and resumes his life with his wife and family.)
