Description

HarperCollins is proud to present its new range of best-loved, essential classics.

'Clanless, lawless, homeless is he who is in love with civil war, that brutal ferocious thing.'

The epic poem The Iliad begins nine years after the beginning of the Trojan War and describes the great warrior Achilles and the battles and events that take place as he quarrels with the King Agamemnon. Attributed to Homer, The Iliad, along with The Odyssey, is still revered today as the oldest and finest example of Western Literature.



About the Author

Homer's exact lifetime is unknown, but it is estimated as around 700-800 BC. Homer wrote the epic poems of 'The Iliad' and 'The Odyssey' and has had an enormous influence on the history of literature. He is considered the greatest of the ancient Greek poets.

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

Found a hard to get book…

Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
