Gilgamesh, three times in different translations, fascinated me.

@Rambler That one is on my to-read list!

@helenS suggestion: start with the book Gilgamesh: the life of a poem by Michael Schmidt...it really helps you understand the context as well as the different translations. I was immersed in all this for weeks. :)

@Rambler Thank you very much for your help! It's much better to be led by someone, than to just start alone. 🌷

@helenS yes indeed it is :)
