Slate's Jim Lewis on Christopher Logue's "Translation" of The Iliad

All Day Permanent Red: An Account of the First Battle Scenes of Homer's Iliad I have since I read it admired Christopher Logue's "translation" of the Iliad. Here's an article at Slate by Jim Lewis that describes quite well Logue's efforts here.

I very much recommend diving into this work (spread across three volumes:  War Music: An Account of Books 1-4 and 16-19 of Homer's Iliad , All Day Permanent Red: The First Battle Scenes of Homer's Iliad Rewritten , and  Cold Calls: War Music Continued .
