{"product_id":"the-iliad-9781974496334","title":"The Iliad","description":"As Daniel Mendelsohn wrote in \u003ci\u003eThe New Yorker\u003c\/i\u003e (October 31, 2011), after noting that it took Pope seven years to complete his volume: \"Many consider it the greatest English\u003ci\u003e Iliad\u003c\/i\u003e, and one of the greatest translations of any work into English. It manages to convey not only the stateliness and grandeur of Homer's lines, but their speed and wit and vividness.\" \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\"For every death there is a pocket biography, giving each fallen soldier a dignity and grace. Every warrior's life matters, no matter how small or far down the order of battle. When stripped of its hallowed reputation and viewed in the light of this barbaric age, where a mass shooting and a beheading with a chainsaw have become too commonplace, The Iliad represents a war story still relevant and meaningful. This is not the work for a specialist audience, but for all humanity.\" - Karl Wolff, \u003ci\u003eNew York Journal of Books\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-5595951\"\u003eAlexander Pope\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-10348729\"\u003eHomer\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Createspace Independent Publishing Platform\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/21\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 438\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.22lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.02h x 8.50w x 0.89d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781974496334\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1974496333\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBISAC Categories:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-FIC\"\u003eFiction\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-FIC004000\"\u003eClassics\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThis title is not returnable\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Createspace Independent Publishing Platform","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44437147451629,"sku":"9781974496334","price":21.23,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0550\/8097\/6621\/products\/img_7337890f-aae5-4a61-ba04-3501054f857f.jpg?v=1700122444","url":"https:\/\/sureshotbooks.com\/products\/the-iliad-9781974496334","provider":"SureShot Books Publishing LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
