Zustand: Good. A spellbinding and enchanting translation of Homer's epic, told in colloquial prose. The Iliad is a story of war, of death, of violence and of the complexities of human nature. This excellent translation from Ancient-Greece expert W.H.D. Rouse is as lively, harrowing, suspenseful and moving as Homer's original.

This is a great first translation to read, and an important addition to the literary canon.…

His masterful tale contains some of the most famous episodes in all of literature: the curse on the prophet Cassandra; the siege of Troy; the battle between Hector and Achilles; the face that launched a thousand ships; and of course, the deception of the Trojan Horse. To this day, the heroism and adventure of The Iliad have remained unmatched in song and story.In his "plain English" translation, W.H.D. Rouse makes a point to keep the language as colloquial as Homer's original was, never pedantic, high-flown, or clichéd.
