Editor's Note
Book Details
'Goddess, sing of the cataclysmic wrath of great Achilles …' So begins one of the great epic poems of the Classical Age and a story so influential its themes of war, honour and mortality echo still today. In revered translations by Emily Wilson, Homer’s poetry is perfectly alive for a modern audience and is beautifully complemented by Clive Hicks-Jenkins' extraordinary illustrations.

About the Author
Homer
Homer was believed to have been born between the 12th and 8th centuries BC and may have lived on the coast of Asia Minor. Little is known about his life beyond what can be gleaned in his stories, and there have been many assumptions made based on his writing and the characters that appear in his work. It is generally accepted that The Iliad (Folio, 2025) was written first and The Odyssey (Folio, 2025) was written later in Homer’s life. Although these are the only two works attributed to Homer, many others have been linked to him, including the Homeric Hymns.
