How can a war book be considered a family book? Why is Aphrodite the only character who loves Paris? Why does Paris’ cowardice make for band husbandhood? Why does Helen, Paris’ illegitimate wife, repent of her harlotry here in Book 3, and what does she truly desire? And who really wins the duel between Menelaus and Paris after Aphrodite intervenes? Devin and Colton attempt to answer (or perhaps simply refine) these questions in Episode 4, Iliad Book 3.
