Timeline

2019

Hawkins's first novel, The Rage of Achilles, is a novelization of Homer's The Iliad, told in modern and sometimes graphic language. Based on Julian Jaynes' hypothesis of the development of consciousness, the breakdown of bicameralism, it depicts the formation of the modern mind in the crucible of bronze-age warfare. "The vast majority of the characters in “The Rage of Achilles” are highly susceptible to bicameral hallucinations. When faced with pressing challenges or cognitive dissonance, the gods “speak to them” and even manifest visually. In keeping with Jaynes’ theory, these hallucinations are produced by the non-dominant hemisphere and perceived by the dominant – voices from within the mind wrapped in the trappings of an outer pantheon. . . .Against this backdrop of hallucination-fueled men, a few characters are deaf to the voices of the gods. Trojan prince Paris and Ithacan hero Odysseus both experience the world with modern minds. Odysseus especially provides the reader a sympathetic consciousness through which to understand these violent men and their alien thoughts. He's forced to nod and go along with the bicameral humans in his midst, unable to come clean about the divine silence in his head. At the same time, every diplomatic or strategic idea that he shares with the Achaeans is attributed to the goddess Athena speaking through him."
