Not necessarily an eye opening read but I really cannot comment since I happened to be blessed with one of the most enlightening and merciless literature professors during my 11th year of the lobotomy-sing institution we refer to as obligatory education.

I would recommend this book to be read by those that find themselves beginning to develop an interest in classical literature, there is a certain depth that is left forgotten when a novice reader filled with cunning is faced with how ‘boring’ classics can be, not every story is solely about the characters and their actions, you must go beyond the apparent plot and truly allow yourself to dissect the inherent interconnectivity of the text with the various literary traditions that came before it, and consequently, the humanity it contains within the unending flow of words.
