So I've just finished the first book of Fagles' translation of the Iliad. Pretty underwhelming so far to be frank. Only good thing I can say about it is that it's managed to evoke imagery in my mind, which almost never happens otherwise when I read.
Other than that it's just OK. Not bad, but not brilliant either. I know it's early to judge, but so far I'm actually a bit disappointed. Is there some major thing I'm missing here? Am I just too brainlet to understand it?

I honestly hope you die in real life.

Yeah, if you're bored just drop it now. Book II is pretty much a list of ships. You'll be bored to tears. Better just go back to reading Harry Potter and buzzfeed articles you inbred, mouth breathing troglodyte.

Is that language simple enough for you to understand, you repulsive pebble-brained homunculus?
