Description

Homer has been hailed as the father of all poetry, and The Iliad has survived as a masterpiece of all time. Set against the backdrop of the final days of the Trojan War, the Iliad tells the story of Achilles, a model warrior and paragon of all qualities the Greeks prized most in a young hero. Achilles' fight against Troy, his undying devotion to his slain friend Patroclus, his relationship with Zeus are all here in this new cassette version. It is read in full by Roger Rees, a multitalented British actor with numerous stage, screen and television credits, including a Tony for the Broadway production of Nicholas Nickleby. This audiobook reflects the origins of this great epic as a tale meant to be heard again and again.
