In the classical studies syllabus in paper 4 you can choose between Greek tragedy or Homeric epic and I chose Homeric Epic
and its written on the syllabus :
´´Candidates study a selection of Books from the epic poems of Homer:
Iliad: Books 1, 3, 6, 9, 16, 18, 19, 22, 24
Odyssey: Books 5, 6, 7, 9, 10, 12, 19, 21, 22, 23
Passages for comment will only be set from this selection of books. Candidates are expected to read the rest of the books of the poems as part of their wider reading´´
I´m planning the read whats recommended to read but I don't want to read the whole books because I'm a slow reader and each books have 400-700 pages.
And it's clearly written ´´ Passages for comment will only be set from this selection of books´´ but they also expect you to read everything.
I was thinking of reading the resume or watching a video on youtube that explains the books.
What should i do?
