i am made of memories (a playlist) - the song of achilles

"Go," she says. "He waits for you." 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.
Hope you enjoy this playlist featuring emotional and nostalgic instrumental music inspired by Patroclus and Achilles!

I've been wanting to read TSOA for a long time but then I keep forgeting ;; glad I got this playlist on my recommendations to remind me :D

[@ajmorris1767]

thank you

[@MarcusTheMedic]

the song of Achilles is heartrending because it brings you on a passionate love that develops over the two decades they were together, you see their growth together, the way that they care for one another, only to be torn apart by cruel fate. its a beautiful book, and these are fitting compilations of music to suit that.

[@booksofazwei]

🤍 🤍 🤍

[@isabella.jenk1ns]

I agree

[@Tsuki_Dearest]

Achilles and Patroclus where lovers.Two souls that joined as one. The fates had cursed them because they are not kind to those who are in love. There last moments where spent alone and not in each other’s embrace. There life’s crumbed in the war of Troy.

[@janialozano2796]

I was listening this playlist while I was reading the 30th chapter 😭😭😭 my heart hurts so much I can’t stop crying…..I want to hug both of them

I love Patroclus and Achillies in both the Iliad and Madeline Miller’s book. And a beautiful playlist to go along with it☺️

[@booksofazwei]

love the story in both as well! and thank you ☺️

[@RG-ew1zz]

Really? you liked achilles in the Iliad, like what lol

[@henrynolan9516]

I dont think you have read the Iliad

[@rosamund_]

@@RG-ew1zz Achilles was deffo not a likeable character to say the least. But I think the way Homer tells the story of Achilles and Patroclus, Hector and Andromache, and so many others is really amazing

[@rosamund_]

@@henrynolan9516 read it in the original Greek, thanks.

Fun fact; the guys in the picture are actually fanart of Damen and Laurent from the Captive Prince Series by C.S Pacat (1000% recommended, the story is great, first book a bit meh and has really heavy topics, but it's for context and later on the story *doesn't* disappoint, in fact my favorite trilogy and some of the best books I've ever read), and not Achilles and Pat Great playlist tho, really love it 😩💕✨

[@booksofazwei]

thanks for pointing it out! I wasn’t sure if it was patroclus and Achilles when I first found this image, but I loved it so much I decided to use it anyways 😅

Thank you algorithms for showing me this playlist...just perfect bestie!

[@booksofazwei]

thank you! glad the algorithms led you here 😌

[@KeepCalmContemplateYourChoices]

This might be one of my favourite playlists, like, ever It's so calming and majestic, yet so solemn and melancholy, and really encapsulates you in the feeling and sheer magnitude of Achilles' and Patroclus' love for each other. Music, like their love, transcends time, life and death. Damn I'm getting emotional maybe this means I should sleep.

[@booksofazwei]

aw thanks so much! I think this might be the favorite one i've made so far too :')

[@ajmorris1767]
