For as long as I knew about Achilles tragic fate, I thought about it in a “gone too soon” way.
However, The Iliad portrays it differently, after the death of Patroclus, Achilles didn’t want to live, the “curse” is kind of a mercy?? His suffering will inevitably end (and soon).

I knew Patroclus would die
Of course
But I had no idea what would happen before and after the death.
Beautiful writing (translation).

I can’t say I’m a big fan of the fighting chapters (I prefer the scheming and the council chapters)
The descriptions of the war is very vivid and vibrant.
