Currently reading this wonderful book by Madeline Miller. My library was kind enough to accept my request for this book and order it. Have read first 20 pages or so but i’m loving it. I must admit that i’ve the image of brad pitt in my mind while i read about Achilles. Currently the book talks about the miseries of Patroclus – who after accidently killing a boy is exiled from his father’s kingdom. More on this later.

The flow is good. One can go on reading the tales of growing up of these two characters Achilles and Patroclus with the mention of divine intervention thrown here and there. It appears as if Madeline has written the book in her own time. There is no urgency. Nothing is fast paced.
