The Illiad -
Well its a bit of a monster. Its by no means the longest book I've ever read or even the slowest to read. I think the devil is in the detail. The whole books is basically cast over 4 days of the Trojan war.
I thought this book was going to be just like the screen play for Troy but its more like about 20mins of the film spread over 400 pages. No trojan horse, no sacking of troy, no death of achielles.
gotta go to the a gig of my buddy Eoin Graces soul band in the Blue Note bar on Capel St.
Looking forward to it
later
