Summary

Virgil's Aeneid is the great masterpiece of Latin literature. Written at the beginning of the Roman Empire, it tells the exciting story of how a Trojan named Aeneas flees his burning city and goes on a quest to find a new homeland with a small fleet of refugees. The hero Aeneas encounters many monsters and opponents, undergoes many trials and temptations, survives shipwrecks and the whims of the gods. Throughout it all he is accompanied by his loyal sidekick, "faithful Achates"... My idea was this: "What if Achates was not just another Trojan, but a DOG!"
