Question has anyone here ever read the iliad and if so was it difficult to read? For context i reread the song of Achilles today and i want more of these characters, but i'm afraid it'll be too challenging bc it was translated from old greek i think and english is not my first language (but also i refuse to read anything in dutch lest i recoil every time someone uses the informal dutch you)

Bro, my unyielding loyalty towards you is totally normal and healthy, I swear. It's just that it's definitely my duty to rip out your enemies throats with my bare teeth. You are the love of my life and I am your most valuable tool. Each night, I fantasize about dying in your arms, covered in blood, and then I close my eyes one final time, satisfied because I can feel your fingers on my face as I take my last breath. Haha anyways

dude you should have been at the club last night it was insane. the dj was playing the lament and funeral of hector from the iliad and everyone was beating their breasts and tearing open their garments. at the end we all built up a funeral pyre in the middle of the dance floor and set it aflame. we were all feeling the inherent human connection through millennia old poetry, it was wild
