I got about 43% into it and then I just got bored. For those who haven't been keeping score, the late Robert Fagles's translations of Homer's Iliad and Odyssey have been the most popular editions of both since they were published in the 1990s. This individual or bardic guild developed an amazing epic narrative poem in dactylic hexameter to recount in oral tradition, depicting the Trojan War (The Iliad) and Odysseus' convoluted return home from the war (The Odyssey). The Iliad and The Odyssey (Fagles translation). The.Iliad.and.The.Odyssey.Fagles.translation..pdf. I can't recommend this translation. I didn't know about how long it was, or really what it was about, and all I knew was that I had to get the Fagles translation because that one was the best one. I remember getting a good grade for comparing the 'cast' of The Iliad with the cast of M*A*S*H (Hawkeye as Achilles, etc.). Robert Fagles' translation of “The Aeneid” is a worthy successor to his excellent translations of “The Iliad” and “The Odyssey.” Most of what I could say about these three works has been said many, many times. Do we just like The Odyssey more because it's a better story?
