On this episode we cover The Song of Achilles by Madeline Miller. We decided to forgo the spoiler’s section in this episode because while this book brings a new perspective to the story, we feel most already know the legend of Achilles and separating spoilers was unnecessary. We discuss how Miller wrote the romance and love between Patroclus and Achilles as well as how she came to the decision to tell the story this way. We spend a lot of time on their relationship but also touch on the other players and events surrounding their upbringing and the Trojan War. Enjoy!
