Title: unreadable
Review: I tried to read this book, but got so frustrated by his rambling, flowery writing that i returned it to the public library (good thing i didn't buy it...). He does a good job of making Classics inaccessible to the average reader. I'm reminded of a phrase from Shakespeare: "More words, less art...". If you want to read a book on this topic (a topic i highly recommend), try "Who Killed Homer?" by Hanson and Heath.
