ASMR Reading "Iliad" by Homer in a Soft Voice

[@PoisabloomASMR]

Hey, you! Thanks for visiting. How are you doing? ❤ In this video, I'm reading book 1 of Homer's "Iliad" minus the part where some hungry chaps start munching on the flesh of other chaps they've just defeated in battle. Compared to the "Iliad", the Walking Dead's not gruesome at all! 😀

Kat, your voice is exquisite. I know you tend to do no-talk videos, but your spoken word performances are always a treat.

[@PoisabloomASMR]

Aw, thanks, Dan. ❤ I'll make sure to include a talking ASMR video once in a while.

I'm trying to imagine how my teenage self would react if she could be told that someday she'd listen to this book voluntarily. 😂 Thank you for another great reading video! ❤️

So true. I'm in my 60's and it took me this long to understand and associate mythology to BC to AD. If they just told us that mythology was the religion leading up to AD. They made it sound like it was billions of years before AD. I love to hear the stories now.

I usually don't like talking ASMR but your topic drew me closer. Your shiny nails always gives your style the extra touch. 🤍

[@mikey9460]

Omg this is my best one and I am a man but I love your nails and thank you so much for the video 😀 because with me who has a illness I can’t read books 📚 I can’t read and write I have cystic fibrosis I was born with it 😭

[@PoisabloomASMR]

I'm sorry you're having to go through that, Mikey. Cystic fibrosis is no joke. You're tougher than many of us and your positivity is inspirational. Thank you for being here! ❤

[@KraussAudioBooks]

Great video, very beautiful. The page turning distracted me, but the reading was perfect

[@PoisabloomASMR]

Thank you for your feedback. ❤

[@MagWheels7]

This is lovely. Nice to hear it read, especially with some chamomile. 😊 My cat even enjoys your videos. He curls up and purrs when I play them. 😸

[@PoisabloomASMR]

Well, if your cat approves of the video, it must be all right. 🙂 Thanks for sharing, Mattie! ❤ I can't imagine anyone actually listening to this video, but hereby you've proven me wrong. 😀

Hi Kat! 🤗 Thank you for this wonderful reading! Love your voice, so soft and comforting. I tried three times but I can’t make it to the end of the video without falling asleep 🥱😴. I’m guessing you have an English copy of the Iliad that you’re reading from? On the other hand, translation is your thing so you could just as easily translated what you wanted to read…ok now I’m not sure. I give up, you win this round 😂. Take care! 💜

[@PoisabloomASMR]

The English translation is on the Project Gutenberg website. 😉 Thanks for listening to the poem, Super Darren. At least to part of it. 🙂 Reading someone to sleep is always a win-win! 💤

Hey, Super Ken! ❤ Thanks for the many "oooooo's" in your "so". They make all the difference. ☺ Happy you enjoyed the reading.

[@littlestarbar3115]

Any book recommendations on studying Greek? I heard of this book, tempted, there's just so many philosophies. 😅

[@cristian2487]

Can you read anything in your native language? I liked Homer a lot but I prefer him in the original. Thank you for giving me hours of relaxation, it is adorable the way you prepare gifts for your kids 😊. By the way, you have absolutely gorgeous hands! I whis you happiness!

[@PoisabloomASMR]

Thank you, Cristian. ❤ I appreciate your kind words. I do have a video where you can hear me read in Dutch, my mother tongue: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pZrThoemhc2cmdE Maybe you would enjoy that one?
