A remarkable hybrid of translation, adaptation, and inventionPicture the east Aegean sea by night, And on a beach aslant its shimmering Upwards of 50,000 menAsleep like spoons beside their lethal Fleet. "Your life at every instant up for-- / Gone. / And, candidly, who gives a toss? / Your heart beats strong. Your spirit grips," writes Christopher Logue in his original version of Homer's Iliad, the uncanny "translation of translations" that won ecstatic and unparalleled acclaim as "the best translation of Homer since Pope's" (The New York Review of Books). Logue's account of Homer's Iliad is a radical reimagining and reconfiguration of Homer's tale of warfare, human folly, and the power of the gods in language and verse that is emphatically modern and "possessed of a very terrible beauty" (Slate). Illness prevented him from bringing his version of the Iliad to completion, but enough survives in notebooks and letters to assemble a compilation that includes the previously published volumes War Music, Kings, The Husbands, All Day Permanent Red, and Cold Calls, along with previously unpublished material, in one final illuminating volume arranged by his friend and fellow poet Christopher Reid. The result, War Music, comes as near as possible to representing the poet's complete vision and confirms what his admirers have long known: that "Logue's Homer is likely to endure as one of the great long poems of the twentieth century" (The Times Literary Supplement).

Playwrights Tobin Atkinson and Marynell Hinto find out in this original adaptation commissioned and premiered by Meat & Potato Theatre.Five actors bring all twenty-five characters to life in this critically-acclaimed play about a soldiers trying to return home after ten long years of war."Tobin Atkinson and Marynell Hinton turn this new version of The Odyssey into a combination of epic adventure and a simple, human tale of self-knowledge."

An Iliad: A Modern Retelling of Homer's Epic

"Spellbinding . . . Smartly conceived and impressively executed, An Iliad relates an age-old story that resonates with tragic meaning today." -New York Times Masterfully adapted by Lisa Peterson and Denis O'Hare from Robert Fagles's acclaimed translation, An Iliad telescopes Homer's Trojan War epic into a gripping monologue delivered by The Poet, which captures both the heroism and horror of war. Crafted around the stories of Achilles and Hector, in language that is by turns poetic and conversational, An Iliad brilliantly refreshes this world classic. What emerges is a powerful piece of theatrical storytelling that vividly drives home the timelessness of humankind's compulsion toward violence. Winner, Lucille Lortel and Obie Awards "Mr. O'Hare and Ms. Peterson have condensed the long sweep of The Iliad s narrative . . . with intelligence . . . chatty, informal, occasionally spiced by digressions that, echoing Homer's brilliant use of simile, seek humble parallels in contemporary life to the passions that inflamed the Greeks and Trojans." -Ben Brantley, New York Times "The language sears impossible-to-stage tableaux of death and destruction on your mind's eye." -Time Out New York " A] sleek distillation of Homer's epic . . . An Iliad supports classicists' claim-often dismissed today- that canonical works can still speak to us profoundly." -Variety
