While the translation holds up, it lacks some modern appeal.

Homer's Iliad in this first edition is nothing short of a masterpiece. The translation captures the essence of the original text with rich language and poetic elegance. I am particularly impressed with the footnotes and annotations that provide deeper insights into the historical context. As a subscriber, I got this book at a fantastic discount—highly recommended. Plus, it arrived well-packaged and ahead of schedule. Definitely a must-read for anyone interested in classical literature!

Homer's Iliad is well-translated in this edition, with a thoughtful introduction and helpful notes throughout. I appreciated the balance between direct translation and readability which makes the text accessible while staying true to the source. Arrived quickly, securely packaged, without any damage. My only critique is the lack of section summaries, which would benefit readers who might get a bit lost in the complex narrative.

The Iliad is a staple in any literature lover's collection, and this first edition does not disappoint. The narrative is captivating, and the themes are timeless, exploring the complexities of human emotion and struggle. A truly outstanding book that's both an educational resource and a pleasurable read.
