>Hadji Murad also lives and dies as the archaic epic hero, combining in himself all of the virtues and none of the flaws of Odysseus, Achilles, and Aeneas.
Why does Bloom gargle Hadji Murad's cock and balls so much?
Murad ain't got shit on Achilles.
Achilles is a poet, Murad is artless.
Achilles is concerned with life, death, fate, honor, immortality, the fundamental beauty and sorrow of human existence. Murad just whines about his family.
Achilles transcends the standards of his cultural environment, Murad is forever captive to them.
If Priam showed up in Murad's tent, Murad would just stab him right away.
Achilles is fiercely loyal to Patroklos, Murad is only loyal to himself.
If Murad tried to fight a river he would just drown like a retard.

Well tbqh Achilles almost died like a retard fighting that river himself

Achilles is the ur-Mary Sue, Murad isn't.

But if Bloom is correct, and Murad combines "in himself all of the virtues and none of the flaws of Odysseus, Achilles, and Aeneas." then surely he is a way bigger Mary Sue than Achilles.

idiotic. fantasy reader conflating "flaws" in the literary-critical sense with the narrative content of power levels amongst epic beings.
