When Emily Wilson's translation of The Odyssey appeared in
2017-revealing the ancient poem in a contemporary idiom that
",combines intellectual authority with addictive readability",
(Edith Hall, The Sunday Telegraph)-critics lauded it as ",a
revelation", (Susan Chira, The New York Times) and ",a cultural
landmark", (Charlotte Higgins, The Guardian) that would forever
change how Homer is read in English. Now Wilson has returned with
an equally revelatory translation of the first great Homeric epic:
The Iliad. In Wilson's hands, this exciting and often horrifying
work now gallops at a pace befitting its battle scenes, roaring
with the clamour of arms, the bellowing boasts of victors and the
anguished cries of dying men.Wilson's unadorned but resonant
language plumbs the poem's profound pathos and reveals its
characters as palpably real, even ",complicated",, human beings.
Capping a decade of intense engagement with Homer's poetry,
Wilson's Iliad now gives us a complete Homer for our generation.
