Publisher Description The greatest literary achievement of Greek civilization, now in a gorgeous new clothbound editionThe Iliad is the first and the greatest literary achievement of Greek civilization - an epic poem without rival in the literature of the world, and the cornerstone of Western culture. The story centres on the critical events in the last year of the Trojan War, which lead to Achilleus' killing of Hektor and determine the fate of Troy. But Homer's theme is not simply war or heroism. With compassion and humanity, he presents a universal and tragic view of the world, of human life lived under the shadow of suffering and death, set against a vast and largely unpitying divine background.

  1. Very good transaction and seller. The first copy of the book they sent me, in spite of being well packaged by the seller, arrived so damaged that the post office marked it “received damaged”. ( I believe that the post office was responsible for the damage to the book!) when I messaged the seller with photos, they immediately sent a replacement copy out to replace the damaged book. The second copy, again, very well packaged by the seller, arrived unscathed. Thank you so much for all your effort!

  2. The two new out-of-print books I ordered were exactly as described and shipped promptly. I did ask the seller's support person (an AI chatbot, I think) to be sure to package the items carefully, and "he" said that he'd make that request of the shipping department. I knew this was hooey, and as I expected, the books were shipped in nothing but a padded paper mailer, no other protection. I got lucky, no damage, but don't bother making special requests of this seller.
