“I read the simplified versions of homers masterpieces when I was younger. Now I'm starting in on the real things. Bit weird in poem form but more interesting. They seem a bit brutal, especially the Illiad, allot of blood soaked sand and such, but these classics are definitely on my "save list".”

ketabe sangini bood, chand bar khoonddamesh ta kamelan darkesh kardam, vali hanoozam hes mikonam niaze bekhoonamesh!!!!”“Where all of literature started.
