Review of Ransom, by David Malouf – Judith Starkston

Hector, after all, had killed his friend Patroclus, the man who was as necessary to Achilles's well-being as breath or water.
. . .
I became interested in Troy after reading 'Route 66AD', about Roman tourism.
. . .
For me, it is the single most revealing moment in literature about what it means to be human.
. . .
Lombardo is an excellent choice of translation for an enjoyable read of that beautiful epic.
. . .
I have to confess there are several I haven't read.
. . .
In building his version of Priam, he borrows from a mythological tradition outside Homer about Priam's early life--a near miss with slavery--and he gives Priam a most unlikely companion on his crazy journey, a rough workman, a carter who sits in the marketplace each day with his mules and wagon for hire.
