Reflections on a lost poem and its rediscovery by contemporary poets

Lost for centuries to the sands of the Middle East but found again in the 1850s, it's a story of monsters, gods, and cataclysms, and of intimate friendship and love. Schmidt provides a unique meditation on the rediscovery of Gilgamesh, showing how part of its special fascination is its captivating otherness.
