About An Iliad: The war in Troy is over – and the Poet saw it all. Back from the front lines, they spin a tale of unquenchable rage, disputatious gods, and grieving widows. An Iliad weaves humanity's unshakeable attraction to warfare with the music of the muses, capturing the contradictory conditions of glory and violence.
