My library loan expired and I had to check out a different translation based on what was available and the new version is actually in RHYME which is very fun to listen to but I'm not sure how much of the plot I'm missing as a result of losing the direct translation. I feel like these epics should be listened to as they were meant to be, but benefit the most from footnotes in English which is a conflict of format.

I am not enough of a Greek scholar to know what makes a good translation versus a poor one but I do find it endlessly entertaining that chariots (?) are called "cars" in this one.
