- Summary:
- "The Iliad presents superhuman heroes and superhuman rage, brutal death, unbounded sorrow, the craving for revenge, the shortness of life, the glory quest, and, ultimately, reconciliation and forgiveness. As human nature is unchanging, the Iliad's themes concern us as much today as they did Homer's audiences 2,700 years ago." -- Amazon.com
