The Iliad | Homer

I was so excited to get this #bookmail this week! I preordered it, but it shipped before the release date, so I was completely surprised. I need to find the time to focus on it, which is hard to do at the moment. But soon, yes…soon.

TheBookHippie Oh I want this too!!! Enjoy! 1h
dabbe The Fagles' translation is my favorite, but I can't wait to read what you think about this one! I haven't read it yet! 🤩🤩🤩 1h

My heart is shattered. From the beginning it was stated how it all would end, and yet the deaths left me in dripping tears. I loved the romance. I loved the subplots. I loved this story more than I had imagined. Who cares if it didn't follow the history completely. This is the way I want to be sucked into a story and for it to leave me in scars. I never want to read anything else, for this book has forever fullfilled me.

Zeus, you are ALWAYS in a quarrel with Hera, because you can't keep it in your pants! 🤦🏼‍♂️

Fragments | Heraclitus
Pickpick

The book is full of clever aphorisms. I noticed within these fragments (often 3rd or 4th hand) the origins of many themes and tropes in Western media over the intervening 2500 years since these fragments began to appear. A quick, but dense read and essential for anyone interested in philosophy.
