Would-be burglar caught after picking up a book about Homer's Iliad on a bedside table.
The 38-year-old reportedly gained access to a flat in Rome 's Prati district via a balcony.
The homeowner is said to have awoken and confronted the alleged thief, who was engrossed in the book.
The book's author said he wanted to send him a copy of the book so he could "finish" his read.
