Salt: A history of the world

I'm reading White Noise right now, since I've never read anything 'Post-Modern', figure I'd start with the grandfather to IJ, from what I've heard. Like it half way through.
And then White Teeth, because I had watched some Zadie Smith interviews and readings, and she's a QT and seems smurt.
both from the library

Is it possible to jump right into the illiad or do you need any specific knowledge of the time period?

>>8254809

You do need some historical knowledge to be able to fully flesh out its universe in your head, but I think that if you jump into it (like I did) and you don't like it, reading all that history first is not likely to help.
