Homer's epic account of the Trojan War centres on Achilles, the mightiest of the Greek warriors, and his fateful clash with Agamemnon. E.V. Rieu's celebrated translation, revised by D.C.H. Rieu, captures the tragedy and grandeur of Western literature's most enduring masterpiece. Vivid battle scenes and the siege of Ilium weave through a narrative that explores honour, conflict, and the human cost of war.
