It’s quite a good story, isn’t it? Read it some time ago, but IIRC there are elements of it that appear in the Old Testament. Borrowed mythology from older civilizations. My translation was an old Penguin one—probably not the greatest.

I love this and pretty much all of Stephen Mitchell’s work. Recommend Book of Job by him if you haven’t already

Sounds epic! It’s wild how some stories are way older than we think. The whole hero’s journey vibe is timeless. Definitely adds a new layer to what we know about classics. What’s your favorite part of this journey?

I have the exact same edition, along couple of others. Although, I enjoyed most the audiobook version, superb narration, but I cannot reference it here as it was 10+ years ago and I no longer have access to it (was it Audible or iTunes, don’t remember).
