Description

The Iliad by Homer

The Iliad is the supreme epic of all time, superb in its humanity as in its poetry, and unforgettably stirring in its thunderous setting of hatred and war. ‘It stands like a great bridge with five massive piers – the quarrel of Achilles with his overlord; his refusal to forgive; the resulting death of his friend Patroclus; his vengeance on that friend’s slayer, Hector; and the great final scene when he learns the quality of mercy’.Translation by F L Lucas. Very early Folio Society publication.
