J07 - The War Nerd Iliad | John Dolan

Dolan rescues Homer’s epic from the suffocating grip of dry academia, translating the ancient conflict into the blunt, bloody prose of actual warfare. The petty squabbles of the gods and the brutal meat-grinder of the Trojan battlefield are rendered without any saccharine heroism. It is a terrifyingly funny and raw account of human futility that treats antiquity with the disrespect it deserves.
