From a book The Song of Achilles by Madeline Miller: www.goodreads.... The Song of Achilles retells the events of Homer’s Iliad told from the perspective of Patroclus. The book reimagines the relationship between ancient Greek Trojan war heroes Achilles and Patroclus. The novel follows Patroclus' relationship with Achilles, from their initial meeting to their exploits during the Trojan War, with a particular focus on their romantic relationship.

The tiktok link isn't working for me? It just redirects me to the homepage
Achilles: I'm going to be the first!
Me: Oh *honey-*
It hits a bit too deep :(
@@irenesaylor9509 but he is now happy with Patroclus in the underworld
@@irenesaylor9509 he issss😭😭
reading this again after reading the whole book hits so hard.
Wait, Achilles said that?? I haven't read the book so i thought Patroclus said that since its written in Achilles perspective, right??
"If you go, you know that i will always go with you."
-Achilles to Patroclus
Yes :_)
Also a beautiful quote ❤️
@@leni3862 beautiful yet tragic :(
Stoooppppp
He lied....
"What has Hector ever done to me?"
THE PAIN THAT SENTENCE GIVES ME
@@leni3862 HONESTLY OMG
killed your lover "lol"
WHERE IN THE BOOK IS THIS AJSHSKSUS JS
@@Eatyourgreenz1 I remember it was on Scyros, after Patroclus talked to Thetis and they found out about the prophecy.
“I’m going to be the first” okay 😭
“Because you are the reason.”
Me: *sobbing* beCaUSe hE Is tHE rEaSOn
And he was😭😭
@Penguin The lady Nooooooo 😭
😭😭😭😭
@Penguin The lady Stoooop it
In the end, you must admit, he probably was the happiest hero of them all. He was united with his lover, his soulmate, his reason for happiness, life and death. They embraced each other in the life after their life on earth.
Yes, they suffered so much, unbearable pain, physically and emotionally, but they are together in the end. Patroculus swore and almost he was not able to keep his promise to Achilles, but his love and his memories brought them together at last.
Do not get me wrong; everytime I hear a quote, see a drawing of them or remember a scene in my head that came from reading this book and spending hours in its world and in grief over the pain, wounds and tears of Achilles and Patroculus, I cry. But at least a little it is also out of relieve and happiness, that their fight on earth, their promises, their love and dreams have come to an end, which shows them hand in hand, together as they have once sworn each other.
Achilles was, at least in this adaptation of their story, the happiest of heros.
Also pardon errors in grammar or spelling. English is only my second language.
How is it that people will write a beautiful paragraph like this, and finish it with “sorry, English isn’t my first language.”, but then native English speakers regularly mix up your and you’re
@@canislupus9208 hahaha stop that’s so true
Bestie, your English is better than mine, and English _is_ my first language 😭🤚
@@idiotburner5616 Glad to hear that, means a lot :D
@@canislupus9208 It is indeed strange that your/you're is such a regular mistake among native English speakers xD I don't quite get it tbh
I cried when Patroclus told Thetis every thing in every way he wants Achilles to be remembered by everybody only for Thetis to carve his name on the tombstone because Patroclus holds every detail and memory of Achilles and their love ;( And when she said "Go, he's waiting for you" omfg the way this book made me feel like I was patroclus is amazing and heartbreaking.
YO YO YO FR
I really loved Thetis in this moment. I literally cried tears of happiness
@@naincysrivastava634 they said in the book that “the two shadows met each other” that means they were reunited in the underworld.
this and this and this-and in the end, it's truly just *him*
in every good and brilliant way that the killer feared by the gods would be remembered, it would be in the goodness of patroclus that we see achilles' humanity. all of him that defies immortality: borrowed armor, a pierced heel, and a tombstone. all of it is never just achilles, but patroclus. one name was never meant to be said (or written in stone) without the other.
i hate myself for spiraling like this at 3 am.
This was the part that broke me
i read this book five months ago and STILL haven't recovered pls im sobbing
I read this book 3 years ago and I still haven't recovered :'v
@@arielgonzalez2237 oh sheeshhh
I guess you just never recover :’)
I... Want to read it. What is the name of this book?
@@gopikakmohan7469 the song of achilles by madeline miller
"I am made of memories"
Patroclus
“Speak, then.”
I ALMOST REFUSE. But the ache for him is stronger than my anger.
I want to speak of something not dead or divine.
I want him to live.
i'm gonna cry myself to sleep now..
Tbh I really didn't like thetis through out the book but i was very grateful for her at the for she did
@@subordhanadas4347 same
“A slave has no place in his master’s tomb. If the ashes are together, it cannot be undone, but I will not allow my father’s fame to be diminished. The monument is for him, alone.”
I HATE THIS KID SO MUCH OMFG
literally, but can we THANK Odysseus for becoming more famous than (god i forbid his name) Pyrrhus after he "doubted" that he would lol
Please same, he made me so angry
I WAS SO MAD
Achilles son can die he was awful I’m glad he was killed for stealing the wife
If I was present at that time I would’ve had no problem punting a 13 year old all the way to the underworld.
He is half of my soul, as the poets say.
There is also a part with that quote! The link to the video is in the bio
GOD THEIR LOVE IS SO BEAITIFUL IM SO SAD IT ENDED THAT WAY😭😭 THEY DESERVE BETTERRR
They deserved all the best :(
IKRRRR :,(((( Btw is that Xie Lian I see? 👀
@@cowappreciation6652 I smell a fellow tgcf fan 👀
omg!!! ur pfp 🥺🥺
I know I am a bit late but they are finally reunited, finally happy. That end quote where they hold hands and reunite in the underworld is enough to give me closure. Plus, to me if they were still alive, they would have joined other wars and they could never be allowed to spend time together and live a normal life. So for me, they are happier in the underwold.
“I will never leave him. It will be this, always, for as long as he will let me.”
In the darkness, two shadows, reaching through the hopeless, heavy dusk. Their hands meet, and light spills in a flood like a hundred golden urns pouring out of the sun.
bro don’t make me cry again
I feel this line is always going to make me cry.
I need an animation this is just too beautiful! My favorite part is when he said “swear it”, “ i swear it..”
Oh if i had the talent to do the animation:’)
same if madeline miller allowed it i would volunteer to do it for free lol
i listened to that part of the audio book so many times man
Good news!!
WolfyTheWitch just made an animation of part of it :D
"I would recognize him by touch alone, the way his breath came and his feet struck the earth, i would know him in death at the end of the world" and dayum he did, man i wanna be loved like that. Patroclus and Achilles sure did raise my standards:,)
When I read the book I couldn’t read the end properly bc I was crying so hard I couldn’t see the pages anymore
SAME. I literally had to tilt my head this and that way just so i can see past my tears
I made my friend read it to me 👯♀️
idiot burner your poor friend
@@emilia.ac.2153 they just laughed during the sad parts. I think they be a sociopath....
SAME-
“I would know him at death…at the end of the world..” 😭😭😭💙💙💙
At least Achilles and Patroclus reunited at the Underworld Huhuhuhu
When Achilles and Patroclus got to know each other, Achi asked him why he had come here, and Patro told him that he had come because of a boy trying to take his dice by force. Then he asked him how you would feel if were you. Achi said I don't know . I can't imagine how I would feel.
_"No one has tried to take anything from me before"_
After I finished the book, it started to become more painful. Achi felt it painfully. The person he loved most was taken from him. Now he knows.
If l made english mistake sorry about that.
Ouch that hurt 😭😭😭
@@magicaldimpleberry2365 that's hurts so bad
pls stooop 💔
“And perhaps it is the greater grief, after all, to be left on earth when another is gone.” - Chiron. I knew from the moment he said this what it meant
The fact that i know how the book is going to end before reading it and i still cried like a mess 😭😭
Same! It didn’t hurt any less :’)
despite balling my eyes out over the last 40 or so pages, i can only say i couldnt have had a better ending for them. Like no ending they could have gotten in their lifes would have been as good as seeing them finally reunite after death and spending eternity with each other. The ending they got was the ethernal love they always had for each other, and i think it could not have been more beautiful
THE BOOK WAS GOOD AND LISTENING TO THE AUDIOBOOK MADE ME CRY 10X MORE I CANT I'M GONNA GO AND CRY NOW ASDFGHJKLZXCV
The audiobook is done so well! Definitely hits even harder.
@@leni3862 Which audiobook???
@@goldenangel._. I put the link yo it in the description
@@leni3862 its says the videos unavailable 😔
@@goldenangel._. I fixed it it should work now:)
"What has Hector ever done to me?"
Oh *no*
You can’t name a hero who is happy, but who can name a hero became happy. After all they did, and the trials, some became happy in end. That’s what a hero looks forward to. To being happy after the job is done.
Omgs ok I know I’m only on chapter 12 of this book but my heart can’t take hearing this I just idk how to explain it just halwbasmsn ahhh
Update us when you finish it!
Good luck
Whoever did the audio is amazing, listening and reading the whole book with this audio would be out of this world incredible. I wish they would do the whole book I would even buy the audio or whatever, it’s that good.
Well the audio itself can be found in full on RUclips, but it lacks the music added in this video if that’s what you were looking for.
@@bennyboiart7781 whos the narrator
@@sarahals7151 Frazer Douglas
The full audio book is on yt. Here's the link:
m.ruclips.net/video/gdVtjQ8A1Ds/видео.html
Thinking about this section in the book pains me. It pains me to think about the joy that Patroclus and Achilles shared, that instantly came crashing down with a plethora of flaws. It pains me to realize that the two lovers could never show great affection due to multiple people. It pains me to realize that they both died in grief or fear for the other. The book and the Iliad pain me in multiple ways I cannot even describe and this book represents it so well that it makes you feel the pain of the lovers.
I’m bawling my eyes out right here
I still cry every time I listen to this
IT'S SO BEAUTIFUL 😭
I definitely sobbed listening to this
There is also part 2 if you haven’t heard it yet! I also posted it

Know I feel sad again but it was worth it
This one and the other audio i also posted always make me want to sob over the book yet again 😭
The six people who disliked were probably just so overwhelmed with tears that they missed the like button.
“And perhaps it is the greater grief, after all, to be left on earth when another is gone. Do you think?”
"I could recognize him by touch alone, by smell; i would know him blind, by the way his breaths came and his feet struck the earth. i would know him in death, at the end of the world"
“I want to shatter the cold mask of stone that has slipped down over the boy I knew”
“I would not leave you, if you wished to come. It grieved me beyond measure to think of the war ending tomorrow, and never seeing you again.”
STOPPPPP IVE BEEN CRYING MY HEARTS OUT FOR THE PAST FEW DAYS NOW AND THEN THIS POPS UP AHHHH
all the tears are coming back like waterfalls 😭 😭
This is too beautiful 💕 and my algorithm is too cruel😭
I am in the same boat as you! I finished it yesterday and only thinking about the book makes me cry again. One of the most gorgeous books ever

@@Shona100 Hahahhhah i am crying with all of you
"im going to be the first"
ugh me when i lie
I just finished reading the "Song of Achilles" laat night and my in tears by the end.
And I've completed reading this book just a few days ago, their memory is still fresh in my mind. I can't just stop my tears. Wish they were with each other forever 😖😔
I read the book 3 month ago it still hurts:’)
I don't really read anymore, but I picked up TSOA after playing Hades and I'm so glad I did.
It's been almost a full year and I still tear up when thinking too much about it.
this autoplayed right after i finished the audiobook and i swear ive lost a couple years off my life because of it
HAHAHHAHAHAHAHHA OH MY GOD IM SO SORRY!
Omg I just finished the book, and I could quote this entire clip.. I’m cryingggg
tHANK YOU THIS FANDOM NEEDS MORE CONTENT
I will definitely try to provide more!
I WILL CRY A WATERFALL STOP PLEASE I'M WHAT WHY IS IT WHEN TWO PEOPLE LOVE EACH OTHER AND FIND HAPPINESS WITHIN EACH OTHER- ONE OF THEM ALWAYS DIES OR HECK BOTH OF THEM DOES. I WILL JUMP OFF A CLIFF
"Name one hero who was happy"
My first thought: Santa Claus 🎅
i mean, if you think about it, heroes tend to be unhappy because sadness and anger are the things that make people stand up and try to make a change. sadness and anger that come from compassion and empathy for someone or something that it's unfair and hurtful are the main things that drive people to fight against injustice
That may be true but i also noticed that heros also lose their will to live and they just care fir one thing revenge.
@@leni3862 well, there's a thin line between revenge and justice, and it's blurry for many
this is definitely one of the MOST novels of all time, I liked the part where achilles said 'its singin time' and achilles'd all over the trojans.
"Remember one hero who was happy"
Me: _ugh,_ Perseus?
I know right!!! There are a few...
I’m going to cry. This book was so amazing.
this is my favorite quote from the book. it fills me with hope, joy, and bittersweetness.
I can think of one, Perseus, the man was pretty much the Greek mythology version of a Mary Sue character, he succeeds at everything, marries a beautiful princess, forges a mighty empire, dies happily, and is the founder of a line of heroes with Heracles being one of them.
This doesn’t make me heal but at the same time thank you, it’s a masterpiece ❤
These types of videos really make me want to get into Greek mythology especially with achilles but then I remember how much information it entails and my brain can’t handle that
Knowing how the Illiad ends while reading this book was absolute torture
omg this is my fav book and in the background you put my fav song its incredible
The song is gorgeous!
"Name one hero who was happy."
Me, a dumbass: "Hercules."
I HAVENT READ THID IN OVER A YEAR AND I JUST STARTED UGLY CRYING
"He is half of my soul,as the poet's say "😭💔
*woooow....just wooow....this is a masterpiece...i'm speechless...*
Go check out the creator and give them some love! They deserve it
As foreshadowing goes what really fucks me up is that
"because you're the reason. Swear it."
"I swear it."
And that's why the hero wasn't happy because he *d i e d*
😭😭😭😭😭 I will never get over this book
I still miss them.
"Im going to be the first" Lets not rush into things sweetie 😭
Not a single dislike, so you know its good
"I'm going to be the first" and the "I swear it",the last one that sounds like he confirms he's going to do it, sounds like a foreshadowing ngl
omg hi me 2yrs currently reading the book, fun fact to whoever read this 2 years ago i saw this and thought damn cool video unaware its a book :3
I never wanted to read the book because I think it is just popular, not actually good. But oh dear, my heart yearns after this book now
my fave music and book i cant-
Both equally gorgeous
What’s the name of the song?
@@emmanuel7042 the swan
My heart can’t take this😭 it’s just so beautiful
Its truly a work of beauty
I've never read the book, just listening to the audio makes me cry, Idk why
You definitely should
Now I’m crying 😭😭
The way this video just BROKE me.
I'm crying again 😭
Chiron :no man is worth more than another ,wherever he is from
Achilles :what if hes your friend?
I've just started the book for achiles... I think I'm around page 80.. and this book is definitely going to destroy my heart huh..
SPOILDERS AHEAD
.. if your like me and ignore spoiler warnings you've been warned..
When achiles was about to leave I was SOBING.. thennnnn they just just kissed for THE SECOND TIME (with the mom spawing) ahhhhh I was screaming!!! This book is going to messs with my emotions and I'm sooooo not ready
Update us as you read on!
@@leni3862 ahhhh so I'm reading it soooo slowly because this book is MESSING WORH MY EMOTIONS.. litterly crying SPOILDERS
rn because before in the cave (can't remember the name) they were so carefree.. and achiles is GOING TO DIE.. like no.. he's so sweet.. patroclus keeps thinking about how much he is going to miss him... ahhh the ending is going to break me.. Im alittle but past when they found where achiles was hiding that that he was hiding as a women.. but AHHHH they were so carefree and know their lives are going to change forever
Welp.. i finished the book.. SPOILDERS AHEAD
WHY DID HE DIE NOOOO... I WAS READY FOR ACHILES TO DIE.. NOT PATROCLUS NOT HIM WHYYY.. I hate the mom but what she did at the end AHHHHHH MY HEART IS GOING TO EXPLODE.. omgggg the fact that he died because of achiles pride killed me WHY DID HE FIGHT HE SHOULD HAVE STAYED IN THE CARIGE.. then achiles killing Hector ahhhh MY HEARTTTT... patrous telling him not to BROKE MY HEART
I've been thinking about it and I can't hate Theis.. and I can't.. she hated patroclus because she knew Achilles would kill Hector because of the pain of losing Patroclus.. all she wanted was to be with her son for as long as she could
THEY ARE SO CUTE SO VERY CUTE
bro this book FUCKED ME UP SO HARD i just finished reading it the other day and heard this again for the first time and now im in tears /pos
There’s way more comments now wow
I finished reading TSOA a month ago and I would listen to this audio every day because I like to be in pain I guess
The book is so beautifully written it has become one of my favorites
I JUST FINISHED THE BOOK THIS MORNING
I will never leave him, it will be always this. :')
I read this a month ago and not a day goes by where I don’t think about it
That one dislike is from Hector
I’m happy I can listen to this and think of small everyday wonderful heros like technoblade ❤🐷👑
(For those that don’t know what I mean)
He raised a lot of money to assist people during his career and made so many people happy. I’m sure he wasn’t happy to die young but I hope he was happy with what he did with his time. To me what he did was amazing. I really hope he died happy knowing he provided for his family and genuinely left the world better than he found it.
The love that people wish they could have…
The words, the background music and the vision of his EYES in the painting....
O my God ❤️😭
Why is this recommended to me!? Let me move ooooon. It's been moooooonths. PLEAAAAAAAASEEEEEEE
if you look closely, he's holding achille's hand
