Synopsis
This handsome boxed set of Homer's epics -- powerfully retold by Gillian Cross and strikingly illustrated by Neil Packer -- belongs on every reader's bookshelf. Epic and thrilling, Homer's two age-old classics have been revisited countless times. Gillian Cross and Neil Packer's exquisite versions of The Iliad and The Odyssey make up an essential set for both Homer collectors and readers who have not yet made the acquaintance of Odysseus, Achilles, or Hector. Depicting their actions, and those of the gods they invoke, are vivid, stylistic illustrations reminiscent of Greek pottery, giving these large-format volumes an extra measure of authenticity and appeal. From the raging battles outside the walls of Troy to the strangely surreal ten years it takes Odysseus to journey home, these bold re-envisionings of Homer's stories are told with simplicity and style -- perfect for fans of graphic retellings and mythology enthusiasts alike.
Item description from the seller
Seller feedback (7,995)
- d***s (1444)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchasePrompt international shipping (APO); tapes were shipped in the original retail box which, while reasonably sturdy, offered little protection in the event of a sharp blow to the box, as there was no padding internally. As a result, two of the tapes cases had chipped off bits. Not a major issue, just one that could have been avoided. Otherwise, good seller, and exceptional value.
