The Iliad stands as the blazing cornerstone of all Western storytelling, an ancient epic that captures the violent splendor, tragic heroism, and unbearable human cost of the Trojan War. Attributed to Homer but shaped by generations of oral poets, it plunges listeners directly into the final, furious weeks of a ten-year siege, where gods interfere in mortal affairs, armies clash on the dusty plains beneath Troy’s towering walls, and the fate of empires turns on the choices of men driven by pride, rage, love, and grief.

Homer is one of the most important figures in ancient Greek literature, believed to have lived in the 8th century BC. He is most famous for his epic poems, the Iliad and the Odyssey, which are considered to be the founding works of Western literature.

Both works are celebrated for their vivid storytelling, complex characters, and profound exploration of human nature.

A collection that acknowledges the challenges of wresting with the human condition, the infinite of one's own inner spirit confined to the finitude of one body, of one life, within the context of what it means to be an Artist; having to contend with inexhaustible dreams confined to limited abilities, and offers a means for the Artist and the Athlete to burn away that which does not serve their ends.

L'art d'aimer, selon Ovide, c'est d'abord l'art de séduire. Bien avant que les agences de rencontres et les entreprises de séduction modernes existent, Ovide prodiguait ses conseils.

Ce qui gagne surtout les cœurs, c'est une adroite complaisance".
