THE ILIAD
Today I finished The Iliad by Homer. It is OK, but it does not keep the sort of narrative pace that would become necessary 3,000 years after it was written. It is super gory though. Anyway, the most surprising thing is that the entire book is about Greeks and nobody is names Gus, Nick, or Costa. What are the odds of that?
