Sinopsis

Homer chronicled ancient Greek history and oral tradition, and in the 8th century BCE, he captured two epic stories told in verse that recounted the adventures of classical heroes and villains of mythology. From the devastating war between the ancient civilizations of Athens and Troy, to Odysseus’s perilous and lengthy journey home…from gods and goddesses to sirens and suitors…the events and characters in The Iliad and The Odyssey had a profound effect on how stories have been told in books and Hollywood blockbusters.

Featuring an elegant, leather-bound cover, foil stamping, and specially designed endpapers, this Canterbury Classics collector’s edition captures Homer’s works in a way suitable for home display or as a gift to a book lover or book collector.
