The Epic of Gilgamesh by UnknownMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
Ancient narrative fiction! The oldest found thus far.
So, what did people think about 4000 years ago? This short story gives a clue. It features a king, Gilgamesh, and tells about some of his rivals, quests, and concerns.
How can one not like cute character names like Enkidu and Humbaba?
I found it a great pleasure to have the honor of reading such an ancient fictional text. It didn't take long to join the many thousands of others who have read and appreciated it over the course of thousands of year. What a treat!
