The Iliad of Homer

The rage of Achilles (played by Brad Pitt in the movie Troy) provides the basis for one of the most powerful war stories ever told. Anger. Jealousy. Betrayal. Revenge. The original is far more poetic and complex than the new film version. This elegantly designed new edition is taken from the 1898 translation by Samuel Butler.
