Review: I read Robert Fagles' translation of Homer's The Iliad for brain exercise since I read The Odyssey before I retired from teaching. The Iliad contained Homeric similes which you really should know about if you are a true literature reader. Homer did not incorporate these similes in The Odyssey which he wrote after The Iliad. While there are a lot of characters and gods in the book, however, there is a glossary in the back of the translation to help you fit them all together; and, of course, there is always Google to help you connect the relationships. I must admit I cheated a little by printing notes from Spark Notes to help me understand and remember what I was reading and some of the most important quotes so I could understand the importance of armor, burial, honor, and other Greek traditions we've lost memories of over time it enriched my reading experience. I talk to people who say, "It's too big and complicated to read!" I disagree. I am 64 years old and a retired English teacher and I understood this book. I would recommend The Iliad for 11th grade - Sophomore college years. Robert Fagles made The Iliad a truly accessible, entertaining, instructive read.
Review: A very beautiful cover! The slightly torn page edges really add to it as well
