[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP once more. Take James Joyce. I look at Ulysses, and think What the hell? But, I should read it, right? [/quote] I just got my kid The Iliad and The Odyssey, but targeted for tweens/teens. I read them myself a few weeks ago. These are great books to read vs. the actual Iliad/Odyssey, because those are texts that you would read in a class, with someone explaining what something meant, or *why* certain events or passages or comments are important. These books you can read on your own. Black Ships Before Troy: The Story of 'The Iliad' The Wanderings of Odysseus: The Story of the Odyssey by Rosemary Sutcliff [/quote]
