The Iliad Part Five: The Horse Sacrifice

from The Crane Bag Podcast · host Jay Leeming

When I got to the whispering forest and the dark I thought of the sacrifice of the horse, and how it bound us to the god of the sea and the way the horse's nostrils flared and later by the fire the branches devoured by flame seemed wrinkled ancestors confessing their bright crimes to the rain. www.JayLeeming.com
