Anger be now your song, immortal one, / Akhilleus’ anger, doomed and ruinous, / that caused the Akhaians loss on bitter loss / and crowded brave souls into the undergloom, / leaving so many dead men—carrion / for dogs and birds; and the will of Zeus was done.

“A great din rose, in one same air elation and agony of men destroying and destroyed, and earth astream with blood.”

“If any other man had told this dream, / a fiction, we should call it; we’d be wary. / But he who saw the vision is our king. / Up with you, and we’ll put the men in arms.”

lol I was pulling up “Ulysses” next in the queue, and then realized it’d been so long since I read “The Odyssey” that I wanted to read that, and the movie felt like the perfect time. And then I realized that if I wanted to read that, I kind of wanted to start with the beginning and read “The Iliad.” And so here I am. If you give a Micah a bit of book…
PS - Why doesn’t Goodreads allow you to make readings of different translations distinct logs? I’m reading the Fitzgerald ones, not the Emily Wilson ones.
