Odysseus is in the Iliad too | Iliad Book 10
This week’s episode is all about book 10 of the Iliad, espionage by night. It’s still night, and both the Greeks and the Trojans decide to send spies. The Greeks send Diomedes and Odysseus. The Trojans send Dolon, a herald who doesn’t stand chance. This is the first book where we get to see what kind of man Odysseus is in the war. His actions are kinda shocking. What is he willing to do? How far is he willing to go?
Listen to Book 11 of the Iliad to be prepared for the next episode on YouTube.
