Homer's epic tale of Achilles and the Trojan War, now in a beautiful gift edition for the Union Square & Co. Signature Gilded Editions line. Set during the siege of Troy, The Iliad, along with The Odyssey, is a foundational work in Western literature and is considered one of the greatest epic poems of all time. It is also one of the oldest extant works of literature still widely read by modern audiences today. Complete with epic battles, larger-than-life characters like Achilles, and the mercurial Greek gods, The Iliad remains one of the most significant war stories ever told.

Before there was fantasy, there was The Odyssey. After the fall of Troy, the cunning hero Odysseus is cast into a brutal, decade-long struggle against gods, monsters, and fate itself. He outwits the Cyclops, resists the enchantress Circe, sails past the Sirens, and survives the wrath of Poseidon--all while longing for home. Back in Ithaca, his wife Penelope fends off ruthless suitors devouring his kingdom. Disguised and broken, Odysseus returns not as a king, but as a ghost of war--rising again to reclaim his throne through sheer will. The epic is attributed to Homer, a legendary ancient Greek poet believed to have lived around the 8th century BCE. Though little is known about him, his works, The Odyssey and The Iliad, became the foundation of Western storytelling--timeless tales of heroism, fate, and the cost of war.
