haven't read all of it — was only assigned part of it — but as far as translations go, this one's pretty good! I'm definitely planning to go back and read the rest

4/5
one of my favorites from hum so far tbh!
yes i only read half of it but we’re counting it anyway because that was what i was assigned to read

Great source for mythology, obviously. Loses a star only because subjectively, I couldn’t stand any of the stories occurring after the Trojan War, so my experience unfortunately ended slogging through.

adventurous challenging dark emotional inspiring mysterious reflective tense slow-paced

The Solace: Epic poems, mythology, and referenced endlessly by the GOAT Shakespeare to level up his thems - what else can I say about this masterpiece?

The Dread: It is dense, so read it five times. 

Overall, this is a must-have, must-read. I am constantly reaching for this when mythology is a reference for added context, depth, and understanding of humanity's dark, twisted layers.
