The Iliad
by Homer
Emily Wilson’s masterful new translation brings new clarity and vibrancy to Homer’s epic tale of war, pride and vengeance. Set during the final weeks of the Trojan War, the poem plunges readers into the heart of the conflict, where gods scheme, heroes fall and the wrath of Achilles threatens to consume everything. With Wilson’s fresh, poetic style, this fundamental work of Western literature feels more immediate than ever, capturing both the grandeur and deeply human core of Homer's world.
