About this product

Product Information

Gripping listeners and readers for more than 2,700 years, The Iliad is the story of the Trojan War and the rage of Achilles. Combining the skills of a poet and scholar, Robert Fagles brings the energy of contemporary language to this enduring heroic epic. If The Iliad is the world's greatest war story, then The Odyssey is literature's greatest evocation of every man's journey through life. Here again, Fagles has performed the translator's task magnificently, giving us an Odyssey to read aloud, to savor, and to treasure for its sheer lyrical mastery. Each volume contains a superb introduction with textual and critical commentary by renowned classicist Bernard Knox. about The Odyssey

  • Easy-To-Read Homer

    This is by far the easiest translation of homer to read! It also comes with a pronunciation guide in the back which also tells you who’s who. I would recommend for any student or casual reader who doesn’t want to struggle through an archaic English translation so they can actually understand what they’re reading.
