"This is a triumph, a worthy successor to Peter Green's outstanding translation of The Iliad. The style is flexible, sometimes colloquial, and often touching the heights, while being always immensely accessible to a modern reader. No version known to me is better at conveying the feeling as well as the sense of the original, and it takes a poet as well as a scholar to do it so well."--Christopher Pelling, Regius Professor of Greek at Oxford University
"Clear, concise, and poetic. Literally an epic achievement. Peter Green has done it again."--Eric H. Cline, Professor of Classics and Anthropology and the Director of the Capitol Archaeological Institute at George Washington University
Praise for Peter Green's translation of The Iliad
"Taken as a whole, this is the best line-for-line translation of the poem I know."--London Review of Books
"Peter Green's particular merit lies in achieving a clarity and fluidity that carries the reader forward. A notable achievement."--Times Literary Supplement
"[Green] gets the interpretation right without interrupting the forward motion that is always Homer's aim--and this is one of the great virtues of Green's translation as a whole: its limber fluency."--New York Review of Books
