Gilgamesh
Simon Armitage
Gilgamesh originated in Ancient Mesopotamia nearly 4,000 years ago, yet its themes of power, loyalty, love and loss resound with contemporary relevance. The two rivals-turned-comrades embark on a series of extraordinary adventures - note least, battles with Humbaba, ferocious guardian of the Cedar Forest, and the Bull of Heaven.
