A bold new retelling of the ancient Sumerian epic of Gilgamesh, Gilgamesh and Enkidu draws out the clash and partnership between civilization and wild nature in a gripping new, poetic midrash on the original. Adventure, romance, philosophy, and elegy meet in this revisioning of the first and most ancient tale of civilization itself. This is the kernel and core of our issues and challenges, told in luscious blank verse. A must-have for the student of ecology, of urban planning, and of literature, Gilgamesh and Enkidu offers a way out of our modern dilemmas into a fresh, new vision, and lyrical existence.
