I read the Iliad in Fagles’ translation last year and am thinking of reading Lattimore this time. Has anyone read both? Is Lattimore worth reading after Fagles?
Excited to start The Posthumous Memoirs of Brás Cubas and The Golden Notebook
Lucky to have found Baudelaire’s Complete Poems
Is The Golden Notebook the best place to start with Lessing?
