The Iliad is an epic of epic proportions. The story revolves around two conflicts: Greeks and Trojans and Achilles and Agamemnon. With interwoven themes of love, brotherhood, and honor the story still holds up thousands of years later. My only gripe with it is its abrupt ending, which left me a bit unsatisfied.
