cjwatson gave me this response to Greek literature as a slightly ironic Chanukah present. It's basically the Iliad from the POV of Patroclus, and I found it very readable, working both as a novel and a Tragedy.
( detailed review )
Currently reading Still dipping into The order of time by Carlo Rovelli. It's a book to savour with its mix of abstruse physics and very poetic language. But it's not grabbing me in the way a novel would.
Up next Probably Iron Widow by Xiran Jay Zhao. Butjack is in the middle of it at the moment, so I need to wait my turn.
