Hey Wait A Sec, Did The Trojan War Suck?
Manage episode 327990299 series 2835773
This week on Cracked Spines your hosts read a whole slew of words centering around the Trojan War, from The Song of Achilles by Madeleine Miller to Homer's Illiad, Shakespeare's Troilus and Cressida, and The Silence of the Girls by Pat Barker. From across the millennia, one single sentiment rings true: Agamemnon is the wooooooooooooooorst. In other news, Sarah had a great time reading the Illiad and doesn't complain about it at all, Achilles is the original jock, and some (war) crimes can never be forgiven, but like, really though, we're not going to.
Content warning for discussions of slavery and sexual abuse.
