Homer’s epic tale of Achilles and the Trojan War, now in a beautiful gift edition for the Union Square & Co. Signature Gilded Editions line. Set during the siege of Troy, The Iliad, along with The Odyssey, is a foundational work in Western literature and is considered one of the greatest epic poems of all time. It is also one of the oldest extant works of literature still widely read by modern audiences today. Complete with epic battles, larger-than-life characters like Achilles, and the mercurial Greek gods, The Iliad remains one of the most significant war stories ever told.
Homer (c.900 BCE–c.701 BCE) was an ancient Greek author and poet who was reputed to have written The Iliad and The Odyssey, two epic poems that are foundational works of Greek literature.
