A creative reimagining of one of the oldest existing epics. This book tells Achilles’ life story from the perspective of the one who loved him best and saw his truest self. It is a coming of age tale that explores what it means to love unbounded in the face of inevitable tragedy. Heartbreaking, but in the best way.
